on 3/25/2009 Many people wait until there is bad weather to remind them that their wipers are shot. You can save a lot of time by buying replacement windshield wipers when you think of it and before you absolutely have to replace them rather then when it's too late and you're trying to replace them in bad weather.I recommend ordering them on the internet now, while you're thinking of it. Get the purchase done in less time, right now without spending time and money getting in your car, driving to the store, fumbling with application books, crossing your fingers that the empty hooks you see are not your size, standing in the checkout line, and driving back home. Ordering online only takes minutes and after they arrive on your doorstep, you can simply swap them out when the weather is good and when you have 2-15 minutes free.

on 2/1/2008 Most stores, at least in New England, don't sell the refill(the rubber piece) anymore due to companies losing money over them. The wiper arm attachment is the same "j" hook style from about 1995 until 2005ish, in this case it's a matter of size. The most common vehicles that need to go back to dealer for new blades are BMWs 2k years, Land Rovers, Mercedes Benz, and Toyota vehicles rear wipers that are newer models. If you have a problem with wipers lifting at high speeds you might want to invest in Bosch Icons or Anco Contour style blades, they are VERY pricey though, they are a simple whole rubber design, no 6 points of pressure, and are aerodynamically designed.

on 1/6/2008 Another tip is to run the wipers and then turn the engine off when they are in the up postition on the windshield. This makes it much easier to get at the wiper attachment.

on 11/4/2007 These instructions are useless for my wiper blade. Its attachment mechanism, though, I think, fairly common, is nothing like what is shown in the video.
