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.
Remove the 2 metal plates from
the old wiper insert and install
them to the replacement wiper
insert.
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 stopper, and then pass the wiper insert thr ough
the final remaining claw.
Applying a small amount of washer fluid to the wiper insert can make it
easier to insert the claws into the grooves.
