wiper insert replacements

okay, this shouldn't be brain surgery. New Aero, want to buy inserts to replace the wiper blades for the first time. I didn't want new whole wipers, because then I lose the air dam on the driver side wiper.
Like a bozo, I didn't measure them first, bought bosch inserts first (22")...they didn't fit because the clasp sits too far from the end (ie, blade mount then too short), so went back and used the computer at the auto store next time, it says bosch won't fit for inserts, it says anco inserts fit on the OEM wipers...again, it says 22" inserts will fit. Bought them, mounted them, they're too short. Ok, now I get smart and measured the original rubber....their 22.625" long! All the books say 22".
Has anyone out there found inserts to use on the OEM wipers? By the way, the next insert size up was 24" at my local shop...maybe someone else has 23".....thanks ahead...JF
