E70 Rear Wiper Size

Hello,
Just got my rear wiper stolen (oh yeah!) and I need to replace it. Does anybody know the size that should be used for the rear wiper?
Thanks

I can't say for sure if it is an Euro thingie, but all the E70 I checked, both in Germany and Romania, had 8 buttons.

Just to make sure: did you guys remove the carpeted floor liner, to make room for the spare? Or the spare fitted with that carpeted floor liner in place?

Spare with floor liner
