    So I ordered a set of OEM replacement wiper blades. How do you change them out ? (this is just the blades, not the whole wiper assembly)
    Thanx

    They last. My original ones are pretty much perfect after over two years of ownership.

    I just replaced mine with OEM. The parts counter guy gave me a quick tutorial on how to replace the rubbers. It was easy. I like the Toyota wipers a lot.

    Because the OEM wipers work better then any other wiper on the market for these trucks.

    Not trying to be a jerk, but if you can get around this forum, you can do your own searches. EVERYTHING you need is on YouTube, or here on TW.

    Same is true for any Japanese vehicle I've owned. Honda, Nissan, Mazda, Toyota.

    Belts and hoses too. There much be a magic elixir they add to the rubber. :D
