I've never replaced my rear wiper and have something like 283k miles on the car. In the whole time I've had the car I think I've used it once.

I need a rear wiper and have searched high & low for Trico, seems the UK is totally devoid of Trico 12 A. Have found on ebay Bosch H309 for £5.45 (Sterling) with free delivery. Can't grumble.

Opened my mailbox today to find two trico 12" wiper blades inside (yes, mirage parts fit in mailboxes lol)
The trico exact fit is identical to the stock unit and was a snap(pun intended) to put on.
Not sure on performance yet but I'm sure they clean the window.
A pic for your viewing pleasure.
Good to know! Thanks for sharing! The rear one does attaches different than the front wipers. Thus, it's good to know the Trico 12-A matches a factory rear wiper.
If I ever have a rockauto.com order, I may add one to my order. Otherwise, I would do Amazon like you did.
If someone has had good luck with other rear wipers, please share!
There's still life left in the original lolz.
It looks like a mustache. I'll bet that looked hilarious in action. I hope you got a video of all that loose material trying to wipe before you took it off.

what really sucks is being charged for shipping from multiple warehouses. I don't see why rockauto can't internally transfer the parts from the various warehouses to a central shipping location, and only charge you once for shipping.
I've cancelled several orders once I realize I'll be paying shipping two, or even three times.
