How to Replace and Install Windshield Wipers on a Car
Some tips I recommend when replacing and installing wipers on your car.
- Make sure the wipers are the correct size and fit your car before you take them out of the box.
- Don’t leave the wiper arm straight up for too long. I’ve seen when mechanic’s have left the wiper arm up and it can snap back and crack a windshield. Wiper arms are spring loaded and have quite a lot of force.
- Sometimes the little clips to get off the wipers might require a screwdriver if you haven’t replaced them in awhile.
