How do I change the wiper blades on a 1980 olsdmobile?

I tried following the directions on the back of the new blades but on my car I can%26#039;t get the old ones off.|||I am assuming you are talking about just changing the rubber part and not the whole blade that attaches to the wiper arm.





There should be a tab at the end of the wiper. That is the side you need to pull on so the wiper slips out of the blade. It might be hard at first cause its been on there for a while.|||If your talking about the wiper it%26#039;s self and not just the rubber blade.





there are two ways.....If you have the old wipers with the spring in the middle you have to raise the wiper arm and pivot both ends of the wiper up. You may have to use a flat head screw driver to get it off the shaft.





Another way is to take a flat head screw driver and pull the spring arm off one side of the wiper in the center (there are two ends on the same wiper) and that will take the tension off to pull it off the shaft.
