    I'd just go to the parts counter at the nearest Toyota dealership and tell them what you need. The inserts from Toyota last for years and don't cost much.

    Oh! and you might want to hit the "report" button and ask the moderator to move this out of the Prime forum, especially since Primes don't have rear wipers. ;)

    Wrong forum. Primes don't have a rear wiper.

    Yep, I reported it to be moved to Gen4 forum.


    BTW, a quick search online would find your answer. It would be quicker and easier than typing the question and posting a thread. Took me about 10 sec to find an answer. It looks like the Part Number: 8524247071 will do.

    8524247071 - Back Glass Wiper Blade (Rear) - Rear Blades. Electrical - Genuine toyota Part

    I just buy replacement front inserts and cut down the better old insert to length for the rear wiper.

    When I had my 2017 Prius the channel (groove?) pattern on the rear wiper was different than the front blades.
