Tried to install Bosch Icon wipers to replace OEM. They don't fit!

I was hoping this would be pretty straightforward but apparently its not. The connector on the Icons is too big to allow the plastic cover on the wiper arm to be reinstalled. I got the part number that was recommended on the Bosch website and its also been talked about on the E90 forums which is 19OE and 24OE but it seems like Bosch changed the connector recently and they no longer fit.

Are there any other options that would allow you to reinstall the OEM cover other than the OEM blades?
