Wiper replacement

Hello, I'm new to the 986Forum and am reaching out about wiper blade replacement.

I did a search and didn't see anything similar, so thought to ask in advance of contacting my local Porsche dealer.

I'd like to just snap in a new blade, but I'm having trouble identifying the correct replacement.

My 986 has had multiple owners and I checked an old service invoice for work done and it references two parts codes (below) used when the wipers were previously replaced, but nothing that pops up looks like mine when I search those parts:

1) 996-628-901-01
2) 996-628-901-02

I've attached a photo of the left wiper, which looks identical in design to the right wiper.

To remove the blade, you push down on the two flat tabs and it pops loose. I've never seen this configuration before and visited two parts stores this weekend, who were mystified.

There's a video on YouTube demonstrating wiper replacement on a 986 and the design in the video seems to show one tab to click, not the two tab setup like mine.

Thanks in advance for any help you can offer in finding these.
