As we have already seen, windshield wipers are essential for road safety and fortunately, they are also very easy to replace when necessary. Sometimes, the difference lies solely in the fittings: in this case, simply lift (or press, depending on the model) the tab labeled "Open" upwards and gently pull down on the blade.

To reinstall it, make sure to insert it the right way and snap the blade into place with a light pressure. Remember to guide it down manually and not let it drop: it could obviously damage the glass, even if it’s light.
