Video tutorial

This video illustrates how to remove and replace the wiper blades on your car. If operating the wiper blades still leaves your windscreen dirty or if there are streaks of water that do not clear, check if the wiper blades are worn or if the plastic in contact with the windscreen has hardened due to prolonged exposure to the elements.

If so, proceed to replace the wiper blades; first, lift the wiper blade, tilt it, and simply pull it out of its socket, then install a new blade.
