Rear wiper blade - longer replacement?

[Mach-Lee]

Hmm Trico 15-G little difficult to find. Any updated part numbers or options?

Go to your Ford dealer and get a Motorcraft one for a Ford Edge. See my post on the previous page for part numbers.

Thanks but you said the tip of the blade isn't touching the glass when parked? I wouldn't like that. I hear the Trico one keeps contact with the glass.

Get the 14" one then, the end will still touch.

I used a Bosch 15" and made a video of replacement. Amazon: https://amzn.to/3IhoOQr

This was stupid easy. I used the Trico 15-G. Got it next day from Amazon.

I did it one handed in maybe 10 seconds from start to finish with zero tools required.

Immediate improvement. Would recommend. 10 out of 10.

Not sure. My 9 YO Daughter would not have had an issue with mine. I did it with my right hand, holding the new wiper with my left while on the phone holding phone to my shoulder with my head....

Afterwards I couldn't imagine someone struggling with it. There must be a decent amount of variance in manufacturing with the retaining clips.

Damn it!

Unless yours is somehow jammed, they shouldn’t take a lot of force to remove. Pull the blade subassembly away from the shaft. I used two paws, one holding the arm, the other holding the blade. Once the blade pops out of its detent, pull the blade toward the glass, away from the arm.

I just did a Bosch A 380 H change and it took less then 5 minutes

LOL I swapped my Trico 15-G in before I took my car on a test drive. The sales dude was like: “…” It took next to no time, certainly less than it took to get the blade out of its package.

Easiest improvement I've made to the car. I used a Bosch A380H 15". Removal and snapping the new one in took less than a minute.

Pic of original clip. Pull to outside of car and then pop off.

Does the A380H stay attached since it does not have the same connector as the OEM?
