I think you need to give details of the base vehicle. Fiat Ducati? Ford? And the year of manufacture.
 
It should be a standard van base vehicle. So if it's a Ducato you just need Ducato blades relevant to the year of manufacture..
 
I just take my worn ones with me to a vehicle parts distributor and buy matching ones.
Don't skimp on quality. Most of the cheap ones give very poor results.

Related, but slightly off topic.

I got caught out in France with a Fiat X250 (presume it's the same with our current X290).

On the way down to the tunnel at Folkestone in a heavy storm, noticed the driver's side wiper blade became badly ripped. We were racing for the train and thought no worries, just go to a dealership on the other side (France) and get a replacement set.

At the dealer, said I needed new wiper blades for my van and asked 'oh and could you fit them for me'?

Technician came out and tried to fit them - and after much cussing exclaimed the fittings are handed - left-hand or right-hand, and obviously they didn't fit our RHD van... doh. And of course not the easiest thing to find on the continent! :unsure:

Anyway, they didn't charge me and I managed a temporary repair of sorts with gaffa tape, which lasted the holiday. (y)

Just be aware, the fittings are different for RHD & LHD! :giggle:
 
I'm assuming yours is built on a Renault ? If so, the ones on my '05 Renault Master are both 600mm long (That's 24 inches in old money) but just be aware that some have the screen washer pipes attached to them and you need to specify that application when you buy them.

If they are Bosch wipers, you can just replace the rubber.

Is there any known way to clear the passenger side top left corner (RHD) Ducato screen. I'm getting endless grief from the passenger who expects me to get the long handled mop out ever couple days when touring to clean it (when parked up obvs)
 
I always get my wiper blades from the Range. I dont find the known brands at 5 times the price last 5 times as long.
same here I buy at the chinese. The dust ruins them far quicker than any use.

The Miami might? be a Renault.

Oops. Beaten to it.
