Which wiper blades for 2003?

I have a 2003 E320 and I find two Bosch numbers for 2003 211 wiper blades:

3 397 118 944
3 397 118 948

I am not sure which I have or if they interchange. Most of the on-line sources sell the 948 ending model but I have not found anyone who has the 944 model.

Can somebody tell me what would be the right one or if they are interchangeable?

I seem to remember a thread earlier on this but I sure cannot find it using every search term I can think of.

I just bought a pair for my wife's 01 Oldsmobile Intrigue. (Bosch makes them now for almost any application) from Amazon.com . They specify a Right & a Left for her car because of a ridge or wind deflector moulded into each one. (The ridge goes closest to the top of the windshield when the blades are parked.)

Funny... they don't list blades for MBs... I guess they are made exclusively for MB distribution.

Well, yes, they do if you use the "vehicle parts finder". That is where I got the two Bosch numbers. So I am still confused. If you look at the 2004, it only lists the 948 number but for 2003, it lists two numbers, the 944 and the 948.
