  2. REMOVE REAR WIPER RUBBER 
    1. Pull the end of the wiper rubber protruding from the blade stopper as shown in the illustration.
      NOTE: Do not pull out the wiper rubber forcibly.
      Otherwise, the backing plates will be deformed or the blade claw will be damaged.

      HINT:

      Pushing the rubber from the end toward the middle of the rear wiper blade allows it to be removed more easily.
