You’ll likely find it simple to change your Duralast windshield wipers. As you may know, Duralast is a private label brand sold only by Autozone, and they generally get good reviews.
The directions below will give you a general outline for how to change your wipers. They are written for wiper blades that connect to the wiper arm with a J hook.
  • Gently lift the wiper arm away from the window. Rotate the wiper blade, making it perpendicular to the wiper arm
  • Hold down the tabs or clips to release the old blade
  • Carefully pop the blade off the J hook and slide the blade off
  • Take the new blade and slide it onto the wiper arm
  • Click the blade into place. Listen for the click
  • Carefully lower the wiper arm. Repeat the process with the other blade
In addition to the J hook, there are other types of wiper arm styles. Some of the most common include:
  • Bayonet
  • Pinch tab
  • Slide pin or post
In any case, you can consult your owner’s manual to determine exactly how to detach and mount your old wipers onto the arm. It should be a simple process.
