! Removing Rain-X windshield wipers is straightforward, but the exact process will depend upon your wiper arm type.
Common arm types include:
  • Bayonet
  • Pinch tab button
  • J hook
  • Slide pin
Here are directions for removing Rain-X blades from a J hook style arm—you can apply the basic principles to other types of wiper arms:
  • Pull up on the wiper arm so that it’s upright.
  • Tilt the wiper blade so that it’s perpendicular to the wiper arm.
  • Disengage the tab on the blade where it meets the wiper arm and pull down. This will disconnect the wiper from the J hook, and you can slide it off.
While removing wipers is a fairly simple process, be sure to consult your owner’s manual to find out what type of wiper arm you have and the precise directions.
