What problem(s) are you having? Did you get wiper blade inserts, new replacement blade assemblies or the entire wiper arm assembly?

Get your receipt and take them back and get your money back.

Then tomorrow go to the dealer and buy a new set there as you won't find any wipers better than OEM IMO and I bet the parts guy will even put them on for you. I gave him some sugar and he put my windshield wipers on!

Pay attention noob. I bought the wipers at the dealer. The rest was a slam on the other noob who can't figure out how to put on windshield wipers.

As for my latest oil change costing $100...

Here's a pic of my nice, new easy access to my oil filter

Hey guys... retract your claws.

If you explain what problems you have with your windshield wipers someone might be able to help you.
