2019/2020 Wiper Connector?

[dkcats3]

I just got my new 2020 GTR, however I can't find compatible wipers from major brands. The connector appears to be a PTB (or more like a narrow PTB), however the rainx latitude 2-in-1's have their "Universal Adapter" that claims to support narrow PTB and I can't get them to fit properly. They seem like they should fit but I have to really apply a lot of force to get them on anywhere near far enough, and they don't click into place. They are on pretty tight so I don't think they are going anywhere, but I'd really prefer to find a wiper that fits properly.

Does anyone know what connector type this is and what wipers are compatible? It's not a J-hook like the Gen1's.

And if you are wondering why I'm replacing the wipers on a new car, I get a lot of snow here and the OE ones seem thin and light. Also, I like the water repellant on the RainX ones.

Bosch AeroTwin seems to be a good fit.

Thanks, it looks like its a dumb proprietary connector. Other wiper options are welcome as well.

IMO use the wipers you got until they prove themselves unworthy. I don't agree with the OE wipers suck group. OE wipers have completed 2 winters and are still doing a fine job.
The referenced thread has all the info - including adapting the adapters with the Bosch EN24OE or EN18OE to work with other wipers.
And, If you have a NAPA auto parts store nearby you can pick up some replacements today:
NAPA ExactFit WIP6024FZ
NAPA ExactFit WIP6018FZ
I'm certain the NAPA blades are rebranded Trico's referenced above.

Ended up going with the Bosch Envisions. People in that thread and in the autozone reviews say they fit and work well. More expensive than I'd like but oh well.

oh and the name of the connector:
Bosch: Denso Top Lock
Trico: Push Button FZ connector

Thank you! This is what I've been searching for. It's so annoying, I've never heard of a wiper coming off of the arm, I dont know why they need so many variations.
