alright, i feel like a complete meatball. (wipers)
just took off my wiper arms and repainted them, put them back on, but cant for the life of me get my damn wipers back on. whats the trick here? (never changed the wipers before, so i dont know how there supposed to go on...but they came off pretty damn easily)

Did you take off the whole assembly (pop the caps, unscrew the bolts, and pull up)? If you did, you need to push really hard on the base of the arm when putting back into the socket. If you look real close, there are a lot of grooves on the bolt you put the wipers back on. Just push hard on the arms and they should go back on...unless you got paint in the screwholes....then you might be in some trouble.

no i got the arms on. i mean the actual wipers. haha, i know...i should know how to do it. i mean, they just slid right off so i figured theyed just slide back on...but i cant get the damn things on. (never done it before.) i looked in the manual but it only shows removal. which was easy to figure out.

well, im putting the ones there were on there back on...so they should be the right adapters. theyre rain-x if it matters...does sliding them back on take a decent amout of force? im too tired/lazy to do it now so ill do try my luck again in the AM

I bought the rain-x ones when i did my wipers a few weeks ago and you did need to apply a good amount of force to get them in (you'll hear the click). Push hard and I wouldnt be afraid of breaking them.

alright got em on. that was way to easy. my problem was there was a little clip i had to lift up in order for it to slide on, which i didnt see right away. so i was pushing and pushing and it just wouldnt go on.
