This review is from: Anco Universal Wiper Refill, 19", 2 per pkg. (U-19R)

Most of the major auto chains in my area seem to have stopped stocking refills like these. They prefer to sell the full wiper assembly, at about four times the price.

If you haven't ever replaced a wiper blade before, it's pretty simple. A pair of pliers are needed -- I find that bent tip needle nose pliers like the Xcelite CN55G 5 1/2"curved Long Nose Pliers are a little easier to use, but any pliers will do. Push in the metal prongs at the end of the wiper blade. With your other hand, slide the wiper blade out. These are usually stiff when you start trying to move them.

Slide the old blade out, then slide in the new blade. Keep the prongs in the new blade at the distant end, or you will have to use the pliers to move them to the next retainer.

This will take about five minutes, and save you about eight dollars, so you are making almost one hundred dollars an hour when you replace the wiper blade yourself rather than buying a complete assembly. Good luck!
