How To Install Wiper Blade Refills on Honda Civic & Honda CRV 2016 and up

[@idun4coin]

Worked well on my 2019 CR-V. Good job! The front wipers are a dream. On my first attempt, the rear wiper was in backwards and didn't swipe clean. Reversed it and all is well.

Awesome! Thanks for your comment! Cheers! Rob

It was hard watching the wiper blade insert when I was so distracted by that killer tool bench in the background. What a great tool bench.

[@robsgaragewoodworkin]

LOL! Thanks! That's from "Shop Notes Magazine" I made 10 of them, 1 for me, gave 3 as Christmas presents and sold the rest. Cheers! Rob

Thank you for posting the video- it takes all the anxiety out of replacing the blades, which is much appreciated.

[@robsgaragewoodworkin]

You're welcome! Cheers! Rob

[@stevehazell1060]

@@robsgaragewoodworkin It makes so much sense to just replace the refills instead of the whole wiper arm. However, in the area I live in, I haven't been able to locate a store that carries the refills.

[@robsgaragewoodworkin]

Sadly they are dealership only.

clearly done video, thanks Rob!

For extra safety I place a folded towel on the windshield until I'm finished reinstalling the wiper blades, just in case I fumble finger the job. :) Good video, Thanks.

[@robsgaragewoodworkin]

RC Guy That is a great idea! Cheers! Rob

On which side will be the tiny bump be once the inserts are attached to the blade assembly. Is it on the roof side or bonnet side if the blades are positioned vertically, I tried the inserts and it seems to work both ways. Thank you for the great video.

[@robsgaragewoodworkin]

I put it back to the same side I took it out of. I think they fit either way but I didn't try it. Just give it a pull check after to make sure it locked in place... Cheers! Rob

[@jimdiller2915]

Thanks. This is my first Honda. 2019 crv. Again thanks for the tutorial

Good video on the front refills. I find the rear of my 2017 CRV has a different style with two integral metal strips that have to be transferred. The disconnect mechanism is also different in the rear.

[@robsgaragewoodworkin]

I ordered the parts and when I received them they had given me the whole rear wiper and not just the refill. Seems odd that it's different but that's the automotive industry for ya LOL!

[@rj.parker]

@@robsgaragewoodworkin The Honda refills are still a deal, maybe $23 on ebay for all three versus $75 or more for three complete blades and wipers. It just takes more skill to use the rear insert.

[@ralphgoldberg1068]

Do you wipe all the graphite off the blade or do you just leave it on?

[@robsgaragewoodworkin]

@@ralphgoldberg1068 just leave it on. It’s just a lubricant that will dissipate over time.

[@salcedohe]

Where did you buy those refills? I am having a hard time to find them for my Honda CRV 2018

[@robsgaragewoodworkin]

Dealer only. You save money by installing them yourself.

[@charlesdominguez4245]

What's the difference between buying these refills and buying a whole new wiper blade? Is it just the money savings? Will I get the same quality as if I was to but a whole new set?

[@charlesdominguez4245]

Buy*

[@robsgaragewoodworkin]

The factory wiper blades are good quality and these are better performing in summer and winter than the aftermarket replacements. Instead of buying the whole wiper assembly you can just buy refills. This is a cheaper option. Also from an environmental standpoint you aren't wasting as many resources by using refills. After a few years, if your blades don't perform as well as they used to then I would change the whole wiper assembly and get a new set. It's really up to you. I'm just showing this particular option as many people don't know that wiper blades can be refilled. Thanks for your comment! Enjoy your Civic! Cheers! Rob

[@georgeiscooking.1152]

Good guys

[@robsgaragewoodworkin]

Thanks!

[@jonesingjalopies5457]

Mine wont lock back into the wiper arm it's just loose. Anyone ever had that problem? Good video tho!

[@robsgaragewoodworkin]

That's weird. Do you mean the rubber wiper blade locking in the wiper or the wiper assembly in the wiper arm?

[@brilofton5117]

Awesome! Thank you so much!
