Check this:

You need to release the cover, insert the hook thru the cover, snap hook in place, then close the cover.

Ok, it was time for me to replace the wipers. My wonderful friends bought be all three of them for my b'day (ok, I asked for them). After 30 min with two friends, I finally figured out how to remove the existing front wipers. It's so easy to remove them once you figure it out I guess...

Now, I don't know how to remove the back window wiper. Can I lift it upwards without breaking the base? Any suggesions will be greatly appreciated.

I just ordered the ones from Priuschat that are the special rain ones. It was so easy to replace them I was amazed. If only most things on a car were that easy...

Thank you very much. I searched, but apparently not enough.

Like someone else said, "never mind"....
