Default What wiper blades

As the title says....what wiper blades are people using?
On our 2015 I've had a great run, only needing to change the blades once so far in all the years.
As you know, the original blade infills aren't simply slide in replacement, and OEM replacement is the complete unit at a ridiculous price.
Years ago I got OEM blades from Rockauto (even though they are LH drive shape and don't suit RH drive), and removed and swapped the infills. So it is possible to use an infill.
I'm now looking to change infills again, as I would prefer to keep the existing aero arms.
Bit exxy simply to source a couple of blades only from Rockauto again, I don't have a shopping list at the moment.
My preference is for good quality replacement infills - the existing infill back measures 9mm...8.5 infills are available, but likely sloppy in the frame, compared to 9mm.
Any suggestions or experiences?
Thanks
John
