Fixing rain-x style(Curved) wiper blades for cheap

In an attempt to save some $ I decided to swap out the rubber blades on my stock wipers instead of replacing the Bosch curved blades that I have on the truck.

Price was pretty significant and figured if they last 6mo ill be good. $7 for two universal rubber blades compared to $40 for the two curved style. While swapping them over I realized you can pull the end cap off the Bosch ones. I managed to change the rubber blade to a new blade in a few mins time. Snapped some pics along the way. I dont know if everyone knows this or not; figured id share and save someone else some $$


1: Use screwdriver and push the plastic off the metal groves. Push off with finger as you pry.



2: Once its off. Remove the lose cover



3: Pull the old rubber blade out



4: Remove the metal supports from the new blade



5: Slide the new blade in between the grooves. One of the 4 I did was being difficult so I used some dry silicone spray to help it along.



6: Trim the rubber so its even with the angles on the metal holders.



7: Put the lose cover and the end cap back on
