I have a quick question, Does anyone have a clue how to pull the wiper arms if there is no little release tab thing.... I went to push the pin and it broke off of my wiper arms.....

Thanks for the help guys.

They are just a pressure fit over a splined shaft. You need to get under the lip and pry up. Careful of paint!. Do driver's side first as it's easier to reach and it'll give you an idea as to how to approach the passenger side which always gives me fits.

So if I just pry up on them they will come up?

Thanks CPNE! I didn't want to just pry them up, I figured they would break. I just yanked both of them off.. took a whole two seconds each lol. Thanks again!
