How to Dismantle and Reassemble a Mini Windscreen Wiper

Model: Mini Mini R56, R55, R57 - Years 2007-2014
Part: Windshield wipers

In this video, see how to change the front wiper blade of your car. Take the wiper blade and apply pressure on the metal tab to release it from the housing and slide it off. Take the new wiper blade and insert it into the U-shaped metal hook; when you hear a click, the blade will be secured in the housing. Ensure the wiper arm is aligned with the other before operating the wiper lever next to the steering wheel, making sure both blades are properly attached.
