Changing Wipers: Stock to Aftermarket

To change your stock wiper blades to aftermarket ones:

Pull up your stock wiper (obviously)


With a lever, or even with your long fingernail, pop up the hood-type clip at the joint where the wiper arm & the wiper blade meet



Pull the wiper blade down



Although aftermarket wiper blades usually come with several adaptors, you usually don't need one for your FRS/BRZ/86.


Just slide it up till you hear a click sound
