Default Dumb Question about rear wiper

Went to pep boys looking for rear wiper blade for the accent and they said on thire computers that they couldn't look it up and that Hyundai could have possibly been doing what honda and toyota are doing with a different clip that you can only buy directly through the dealership? This confuses me because im not trying to take the whole damn arm off...just the wiper...size wise i was looking at a 12 13 or 14 wiper looked about the same size...does anyone know for sure what size it is thanks.

Next time just take yours off at the store and bring it inside. It's a standard type of connection.

I don't have a rear wiper, but I agree with 187sks. It should be a standard connection - feel free to post a pic here and I'll tell you. Also, no need to disrespect Pepboys (at least on this) because their computer may not show a listing for it - and an inexperienced employee may just assume that means it doesn't exist. He should have still walked out there and looked - but Honda and Toyota are big fans of custom mounts for the rear blades.
