New wipers on 2008 models

I'd like to replace my 2006 Aero Sportcombi's wipers with the new "system" found on the 2008 9-3 model range -- a new arm design and a rubber blade. The rubber blade set-up is much more efficient than the metal blades on all the cars I've driven that have them from Volvos to BMWs.
I'd rather not retrofit my existing set-up with just a aftermarket rubber blade as I don't like how they attach to the existing arm -- it's a very chunky attachment as opposed to the nearly seemless assembly of the 2008s (e.g., aftermarket Bosch and Valeo designs).
Do you think one order the wiper arms from Saab in addition to the new blades?
