Bosch micro edge wiper blades installation

I just installed some new PIAA wiper bleds on my and the connector they said fits the Porsches didn't fit my wiper arms. Gotta watch and double check everything these days! I'll have to start saving all the old clips from the wiper blades I guess! Originally Posted by cknaak.

I just went back to AutoZone to return the bosh blades. I decided to try their Duralast brand to see if the clips work and they did. Bosch really screwed up their clip redesign. Wrong solution. Stop putting on wipers that will be toasty in less then a year. A quality silicone blade won't break down from ozone and UV. Silblade is the best of the crop. You should sell these. I put the Silblades on my car over 10 years ago ?

I swap them from side to side every year or so to keep them from taking on the curve of the resting part of the driver's side window.

When you wash the window run the towel down the edge to clean it so it is just raw silicone wiping the glass. Also use them on the truck and the other cars.

The ones on the truck are from 5 years before I bought the truck! How fast do you want to go? Thread Tools. All times are GMT The time now is AM.

The wiper arm will prop itself up once it hits a degree angle. Depress the small tab located on the underside of the wiper blade. Pull the wiper blade down while depressing the tab. Discard the old blade. Place a towel down on the windshield while the blade is off the arm. If the arm accidentally releases and hits the windshield, it will crack the glass.

Pinch the sides of the adapter housing together. Pull the adapter housing back to open the adapter. Slide the wiper arm through the opening on the top of adapter housing. Slide the hook of the windshield wiper arm into the adapter by pulling the wiper blade up.

Close the adapter housing to lock the wiper into place.
