Wiper blades the same for RHD and LHD cars?

Hi guys,

I am looking to buy some wiper blades from the US online since it is much cheaper over there.

Now I am looking for a pair for a E46 328i 1999 sedan

I looked at the E46 BimmerWiki and found out that the correct Bosch Icon pair would be 422B and 419B.

Would anyone happen to know if wiper blades are the same for both left hand drive and right hand drive cars? I tried to search for it but couldn't come up with anything.

(since I am also buying a pair for my e89 z4 I guess the answer would be correct for both?)

Many thanks!
Regards,
Eric

I believe the Icons are different... due to the spoiler... they have A and B designations (I suppose for LHD and RHD)... they also have ones that have the spoiler in the center for mono-wiper applications.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong. :)

Here is some info on the A/B designations http://www.e46fanatics.com/forum/showthread.php?t=718427
