Properly Installing Your Windshield Wipers

Once you have your brand new Diamond Glass windshield installed, it is time to replace those old windshield wipers! Wipers can do wonders when it comes to increasing your visibility, and keeping you safe in a storm.

Knowing how to install them properly is very important. The process may seem simple enough, but installing them improperly could cause them to fly off your car onto the freeway when you need them the most! To ensure that they are going to stay intact, follow these steps:

1. Carefully remove the old wipers—they are metal, and can easily damage your glass windshield.
2. Looking at the side of the wiper where it attaches to the metal arm, you will see that one end of the plastic clip is flat and the other has a curve across the top. Rotate the plastic clip until this curve is pointing toward the wiper blade.
3. Hold the wiper upside down next to the metal wiper arm, where you will see that the curve in the arm matches the curved top of the plastic clip.
4. Lower the wiper over the wiper arm, putting the arm between the sides of the wiper and with the open end of the "hook" facing the plastic clip.
5. Move the hook over the plastic clip, then pull the wiper upward so that the clip's rounded edge slides into the hook.
6. Pull it tight so the assembly clicks into place.

The process is now complete. Make sure that you replace your wipers as soon as they start functioning less than perfectly. Windshield wipers are essential to your safety while driving—install your new wipers today!
