Default wiper removal

I know this is a stupid question, but for the life of me, I can't get my old windshield wipers off. Anyone with a '02 2dr r/t if you could snap a picture of exactly what I have to pry off and what I have to do I would really appreciate it. The instructions on the new wipers don't make any sense and I don't want to break anything. Thanks again

Are you removing the blade from the holder, the holder from the arm or the arm from the motor?

if they are held on by the arm hooking into the whiper blade then there should be a little tab you can lift or push and just slide the blade off that way. if its pushed onto the little tab through the side then there should be a little clip thing you can push over slightly to pull the blade off. I have an 01 R/T and it took me a min to figure it out but its pretty simple once you find it out. hope this helps

Kind of the same subject... I just bought new blades, 24" for the driver side (according to the guide) and I could not get it on at all. It's like the hook the blade connects too was too long. Is that normal?

There are only 4 common wiper hookups: small pin, big pin, small hook, big hook. If the hook is too big for the wiper, it should have an adapter to make it snug within the wiper arm.
