Guide overview

Before you begin

During the fall and winter seasons, rainy days come more often, so the car you use to get around must be safe for rainy days. One of the most important things your car must have during rainy days is windshield wipers, simply because they are the only way you can see the road when driving in the rain. It's essential to replace them often to be as efficient as they can when the time comes. In this guide, I will replace the wipers for a Jeep Wrangler 2008 with size 15 blades. Before starting on the project, make sure to have the measurement of your wipers to obtain them ahead of time; Step 1 shows how to correctly measure your blades in case you don't know the size.

Step 1

Repair step

  • Measure the length of the wiper blade using the measuring tape to determine the length of your replacement blades.
  • In this case, it's 15 inches.
  • Place the cloth underneath both wiper blades to protect the windshield.
Step 2

Repair step

  • Pick up the blade.
  • Press down on the small white clip holding the arm connected to the car.
Step 3

Repair step

  • Once the blade is unhooked, tilt the blade and pull it downwards.
  • Detach the blade from the windshield arm.
Step 4

Repair step

  • Rotate the clip on the replacement blade to the right as shown in the picture.
  • Slide the hook of the arm in between the blades.
Step 5

Repair step

  • Snap it into place and make sure it's secure.
  • Repeat this process for the other windshield wiper.
