IMPORTANT: Passenger and driver side wiper blades are different lengths. Ensure that the longer blade is installed on the driver side.

IMPORTANT: Do not remove the retainer clips from the new wiper blade element until installed.

Slide the wiper blade element into the wiper blade, starting with the heel claw, so that the claw engages in the groove of the wiper blade element.
Guide the wiper blade element through the wiper blade claw sets.

NOTE: If the metal clip on the wiper blade insert is not completely engaged to the heel claw, the wiper blade insert will not be sufficiently retained and may result in windshield damage.

Push the wiper blade insert so that the metal tabs fully engage into the heel claw.
