Winter driving can be dangerous, so putting winter windshield wipers on your
Toyota Corolla
sounds like a great idea and is an easy way to help you stay safe!
To change the windshield wipers on your 2005 Toyota Corolla, you should:
  • Locate the small clip on the back of the wiper blade that holds it in place.
  • Pull the clip upwards to unlock the wiper blade.
  • Push the wiper blade backward as if you were sliding it down the wiper arm.
  • Once the wiper blade pops out of place and away from the hook, take it off.
  • Line up the new wiper blade with the hook, making sure you have the correct wiper and it is oriented in the right direction.
  • Lock the wiper blade in place. You should hear an audible click.
  • Make sure the clip is locked in place.
Finally, you can further prepare for winter driving by making sure your
car insurance
policy includes all the coverages you may need like
towing and labor coverage
.
