1 Move the wiper blade until a
click sound can be heard and
the claw detaches, and then
remove the wiper blade from the
wiper arm.
2 Pull the wiper insert out past the
stopper on the wiper blade, and
then continue to pull until it is
completely removed.
Lightly grasp between the claws of the wiper blade to allow the wiper insert to lift up, making it easier to remove.
3 Remove the 2 metal plates from
the old wiper insert and install
them to the replacement wiper
insert.
4 Insert the wiper insert starting
from the claw at the center of
the wiper blade. Pass the wiper
insert through the 3 claws so
that it sticks out from the stop-
per, and then pass the wiper
insert through the final remain-
ing claw.
Applying a small amount of washer fluid to the wiper insert can make it easier to insert the claws into the grooves.
5 Check that the wiper blade
claws are fitted in the grooves of
the wiper insert.
If the wiper blade claws are not fitted in
the grooves of the wiper insert, grasp the wiper insert and slide it back and forth multiple times to insert the claws
into the grooves.
Lightly lift up the center of the wiper insert to make the rubber easier to
