Raise the Wiper Arm
Lift the metal wiper arm away from the windshield until it locks vertically. Place a folded microfiber towel on the glass underneath the arm for protection.

Release Old Wiper Blade
Locate the release tab on the Side Pin / Pinch Tab connector. Depress the tab and slide the old blade out toward the base of the arm.

Attach New 26" / 18" Blade
Align the adapter on the new blade with the arm hook/tab and push firmly until you hear an audible click. Verify it is locked in place.
