  • Here is a link to the rear windshield wiper with free shipping on Amazon- amzn.to/2i3UqOp
    It just started raining around where I live and my wiper blade was completely dilapidated from a summer in the sun. I don't use the rear one near as often as I use the front wipers, but I like having a resh one on there for when it is needed. I also don't like driving around with pieces of rubber hanging off and don't want the metal parts of the wiper rubbing on the window constantly, so it was time for a change. I didn't find the replacement blade everywhere I looked, so I thought it might be annoying for other people looking for it too. In this quick video I show a full replacement and it takes two minutes! Watch how to change the rear wiper blade on a Subaru Outback and leave any questions or comments below. As always, I appreciate thumbs up and new subscribers! Have a good one.

    Thank you for the clear and thorough instructions. The guy who sold me the blade couldn't remove the old blade. After watching your video, I removed the old blade and added the new one. The most complicated part was holding the flashlight with my chin since both hands were on the blade!

    Thanks so much for this video! You saved me a lot of time - I struggled for about 20 minutes with the front wipers. With your video the rear wiper took me three minutes to replace. I have a 2012 Outback and your parts were the same as mine. I got my replacement blade at a local auto parts shop. Thanks!

    Man, I hate it when companies decide to reinvent the wheel. This was what I inferred from the new blade but dang it felt like I was going to break the wiper arm.... probably the goal to sell more wiper arms. Thanks for confirming my plan of attack, I expect this part to fail within first five years with the heating/cooling cycles where I live

    If you cannot find the one with the central pin, you can just remove the silicone of the old one and replace it with the silicone in the new one.
    I had to do that because the Rainx ones that I had had no central pin nor any ability to get down to that within its assembly because of the nonstandard Subaru mount.

    is it absolutely necessary to buy the entire wiper assembly? or could we also just get the actual wiper blade inserts with the metal inserts to hold in place? only reason i ask is that the assembly blade holder seems like it should be fine to re-use

    • @KetoKevin
      @KetoKevin  Před 7 lety

      WiseOne19 I will have to take a look. You may be able to buy a similar sized insert and make it work, but there weren't any listed that fit. It's a good idea though. Let us know if you try it:)

    for Subaru wiper blades i just went to a Subaru dealership and purchased them. Front ones were $ 18 bucks a piece. I didn't need the rear but they said 14 bucks. To me it wasn't worth putting cheap blades on my Subaru + they wern't much cheaper anywhere else. Beam style is the way to go there tensioned much better to the winshield.

  • @deathb4digital
    @deathb4digital Před 5 lety +1

    Any Subaru dealer sells just the rubber insert for about $5 and you don’t even need to remove the blade from the vehicle. Just slide the old rubber out and slide the new one in.
