Default Re: Wiper replacement

I just use whatever refills the local parts store has, like the Anco's, Bosch, or something similar. Most of them come with a generic adapter, so you'll need to leave your wiper arms in, but remove the blade assembly at the pivot point so what you're left with is the armature that has the end shaped into a U-shape. That U-shape fits into the universal (usually plastic) adapter that comes with the refills. There is usually a release lever that lets you slide the old blade assembly down and off of the U-shaped end. Then you reverse the direction, pulling the new refill up onto the U-Shape end until it snaps into place.
