I bought some Anco replacement wiper blades and the clips that connect to the arms didnt fit and the blades didnt do the best job cleaning the glass....so I went and bought some rain-x replacement wiper blades today and the clips dont fit on them either. I have to be missing something. The arm is to big to fit in the clip. Will only OEM work?

 

Check the instructions on the box, the rainx ones are different than every other wiper blade out there, you slide the blade into the hook and fold it like it is going to go against the windshield, when you fold them they lock in place there is no clip to hold them.

 

some wipers come with adaptors for the larger arms. was there any other small pieces that came with the wipers?

 

you don't use the additional adapters that come with the rain-x blades.

 

just go buy a 16$ set of bosch and be done with it. im using rain-x blades now and for the same price they dont do as good of a job as the bosch. rain-x windshield stuff is awesome though

 

Yea, I was tryin to use the adapter that came with it. If you dont use the adapter what do you use?

 

Sorry for wasting your time guys. I figured it out. I guess I really am stupid.

 

guess i was wrong about the adaptor.

glad you got it fixed.

i used the bosch. they are pretty good.

anyone use the PIAA blades?

 

I used the adapter that came with them.

 

I just replaced the ones on my car and it took a little while to figure it out...guess I don't have the greatest mechanical apptitude going! These are a brand I've never heard of...had Bosch before.
