In this video, see how to replace the rear wiper blade on a BMW X3. Grasp the rear wiper blade with your hands, gently pull it as shown in the video (without breaking the arm), and detach it from the arm's housing. Install the new blade on the rear arm (if the blade is not original, install the adapter if available), and you will hear a click indicating it is secured.

Finally, lower the rear wiper arm onto the rear windshield and test the new blade. It is always preferable to use original parts for better durability and quality.
