The rear wiper blade on my '05 Forester is a non-standard design. The arm is designed in such a way that a standard blade won't fit. It's end is too wide to fit into the opening on the blade. I suppose that leave only three options:
- Buy a replacement blade from the dealer
- Replace the arm with a US standard (Trico). Does anyone know how to remove the existing wiper arm? I have looked for a setscrew but can't find one. What's the trick?
- Replace only the wiper element
The desert heat & sun where I live will ruin a wiper blade in 6 months, leaving them worthless when the winter rains hit.
