How to Replace the Rear Windscreen Wiper Blade?

Model: Volkswagen Golf Golf VII, MK 7, Golf 7 - Years 2012-2019
Part: Windshield wipers

Follow this video to learn how to replace the front rear wiper blades. The car shown is a Volkswagen Golf 7, but the procedure is practically identical for any car model. First, turn on the ignition, move the wiper blades up, and lock them in this position. Then, place a cloth between the rear window and the wiper arm to prevent damage to the glass if it slips. Lift the wiper arm, detach the old blade, and insert the new one. Do the same with the other blade, then reactivate the wipers (after removing the cloth) to return them to their original position.
