Buying windshield wiper blade replacements for GLK350 in Canada

One thing I hate about buying a new model vehicle is that whenever I go to Canadian Tire, etc, to find replacement wipers, there is never anything in their guide book about what I need, the model is usually not even listed.

Can anyone in Canada give me the specs for wiper blades for the GLK350 and where to get them?

Thanks and Happy Holidays to everyone

Thanks for the reply! I did state that I wanted to know where to get them up here in the frozen northern outpost of Canada. Some recommendations are to buy them online, but with shipping to Canada, it becomes very pricey.

I am trying to avoid the laborious task of trying to search for these on every online Canadian store site, hence the question about the specs AND where to get them. I am in Vancouver, BC.

Any other Santas around?

Since you're in Van;

1. Set up an account with TSB shipping in Pt Roberts

http://www.tsbshipping.com/

2. Order whatever through US-based online store and have it shipped to TSB.

3. Get an email from TSB when it arrives.

4. Take a trip to Pt Roberts. Fill up with gas @ $0.20/litre cheaper while you're there!

Go to Trico.com and put in your vehicle and it will tell you exactly what you need, if they are available in CAN or can be ordered thru the mail.

I thank you for your answers. I have a mailbox in the US, but as I stated in my original post, I was wanting to know what the replacement wipers for the GLK350 were, if they can be bought locally here in Canada and if so, where. Doing Google searches inevitably lead to US sites and was hoping for a quick and easy answer, ie. "yes, Go to the BlahBlah Store on Main and ask for XYZ" There must be Canadian GLK350 drivers that needed their blades replaced and did not order through the US :P
Thanks!

No sure you have a solution. Probably you can find from Rain @ X website that 19" and 22" fits GLK350. I remember it is available at a WalM superstore in Toronto.

PS. Check the correct wiper arm before you pay.

It's 19 and 21 not 22.

Don't buy Rainx Wipers. Passneger one doesn't fit. And they are crap. I'm amazed how hard it's to find good working wipers, esp. now since it's cold. Got Trico and still not perfect. Hopefully Bosch will come out with something for GLK soon.

I have same feeling, it is not easy to find a good wiper for winter season.
As I couldn't waited from Bosch, I chose RainX under selection guide from her website and put a 22" Latitude blade on driver side, it hasn't worked too bad since 2 weeks.
