Default Windshield Wipers

Drivers side was beginning to loose some paint so I decided to get the whole assembly instead of the inserts alone. They are very easy to do. I found turning on the wipers then turning off the car with the wiper fully extended gives you easier access.

- Drivers side has a clip that flips up. This is on top of the wiper. Push assembly forward to release
- Passenger side has a plastic clip that needs to be pushed upward for it to release. It is on the underside of the wiper.

Inserts are only $5.00

(R)8521450061
(L)8521450100


1 BLADE, FRONT WIPER, LEFT . BLADE, FR WIPER, LH 8522250040 $23.53
1 BLADE, FRONT WIPER, RIGHT . BLADE, FR WIPER, RH 8521250051 $13.39

Thank you. I bookmarked this because I know I will eventually need this info. Wiper blades become non-functional very quickly here in the desert. It is amazing how many different ways there are to change wiper blades.

After 3 years of ownership, I finally changed the wiper blade inserts for $5 each. It's amazing how long they lasted without streaking. Can't complain about the price and they are so quiet and smooth.
