Installing wiper blades on your car is a simple task that can be done in a few easy steps. Here's a guide to help you:

Tools & Materials Needed:

• New wiper blades
• A clean cloth (optional, for wiping the wiper arm)
• Instructions (if the wiper blades come with any)

Steps:

1. Lift the Wiper Arms:

   • Lift the wiper arm off the windshield. In most cars, the arm will stay in an upright position once lifted. If it's difficult to lift, try gently pulling it away from the windshield while lifting.

2. Remove the Old Wiper Blade:

   • Look at the connection between the wiper blade and the arm. Depending on your car, this could either be a hook, pin, or a J-hook attachment.
   • For a hook-style attachment:
     • Slide the wiper blade off the hook by pressing a small tab on the blade (usually where the blade connects to the arm). Gently pull the wiper blade downwards or sideways to remove it.
   • For pin-style attachments:
     • If the wiper blade is held in place by a small pin or clip, release it by pressing the pin or lever and sliding the wiper blade off the arm.
   • For a J-hook style:
     • Lift the hook, then slide the wiper blade off.

3. Prepare the New Wiper Blade:

   • Unbox the new wiper blades. Make sure the size and type match your vehicle’s specifications. Most blades come with an attachment that matches common arm types.
   • If necessary, attach any adapters or connectors that come with the new wiper blades. Some blades may come with multiple adapters to fit different arm types.

4. Attach the New Wiper Blade:

   • Slide the new wiper blade onto the wiper arm. Make sure it is securely attached.
   • For a hook-style attachment: Slide the wiper blade onto the hook, ensuring it clicks into place.
   • For pin-style attachments: Insert the blade and snap it into place. Ensure the pin locks the blade in place.

5. Lower the Wiper Arm Back into Position:

   • Once the blade is securely attached, gently lower the wiper arm back onto the windshield. Be careful not to let the arm snap back forcefully onto the glass, as this could crack the windshield.

6. Test the Wiper Blades:

   • Turn on the car and test the wipers to ensure they are functioning properly. Check for smooth movement, correct alignment, and no noise while they operate.

Tips:

• Always replace wiper blades in pairs (both front wipers) to ensure even wiping and performance.
• If the wiper blades are squeaking or leaving streaks, it may be time to replace them, even if they haven't worn down completely.
• Make sure the new blades are the correct size for your vehicle. Check your car's manual or the existing wiper blades for the correct length.

By following these steps, you should be able to install your wiper blades easily and improve visibility in rainy or snowy conditions.
