Default Wiper blades

I went to Kmart to buy replacement wiper blades for my audi a4, the book said that the blades I was buying fit my car but when I went out to install them they didn't fit. It seems that the clips that come on the audi aren't compatible with just any blade, do I have to get them at the audi dealer?? And around how much do they run.

Which wipers did you buy?
I bought those "kinda AERO WIPER BLADES" from Walmart but like u said clips dont fit at ALL. So i just took the clips off and attached blades and arms with the screw. It doesnt actually sticks that good to the window, but when you adjust your wiper arm and goes ok for a little bit and then you have to do the same thing))

I buy the plain rubber blade refills and slide them into the stock brackets. Works perfect and is cheap.

I bought them at the dealer for 35 bucks. Expensive yes but I had NOOO Headaches A) finding the right blades or B) Installing them

Benefits outweighed the costs for me.
