Wiper Blade Arms

How in the world do you get the wiperarms off!? I can see a small clip on the inside of the arm that looks like it holds the arm on the splines, and I can lift the clip up, but I can't get the arm to come off. Am I missing a step?

Re: Wiper Blade Arms

You have the right idea. You have to try and wiggle the arm off the splines while you hold the clip back with a screwdriver. It can be kind of a beeyatch. I use another screwdriver placed between the cup of the wiper arm and the cowl, but my paint sucks and I don't care to scratch it. I wouldn't recommend this method if you don't want your cowl scratched all to heck.

Thanks, I kindof figured I was going in the right direction. It looks like it has some paint on the splines. I wonder if the paint is making a tight fit.

Re: Wiper Blade Arms

It probably is; they are a pretty snug fit when the threads are bare.
