Front wiper blade replacement
Any help appreciated. I have a 2015 xB with the original wiper blades. I can't see how to remove the blades. I've never had a problem with other vehicles but for some reason I am stumped. I've researched YouTube for a video but didn't find one. I know it's a hook arrangement but for the life of me I cannot find the release. Thanks.

This works on most cars with the Hook Release, regardless whether it's a tC, xB, Ford, Chevy, Mopar...

Thanks. Mine is not this simple. I do not have an obvious lever to push on. I've tried to upload a pic but won't take for some reason. I have an appt with dealer tomorrow for routine service so I will ask them. Appreciate your help

How to Change 2015 Scion xB Wiper Blades
Unless, you have a unique situation or there is something special about your wipers? Maybe, someone else with a xB2 can chime in?
Here is How to Upload Pics on SL:

p.s. after your Dealer Appointment, maybe you can come back here and Share your Experience.
Thanks.

It's possible, you don't have a OEM Wiper Blade, but, something like the ANCO Transform Wiper Blades (Shrouded Arm J-Hook Connection):
Look for the small black latch that snaps down at the 1st part of the video. Use your fingers or a small screwdriver to lift up on the latch to release the arm.
Hope this Helps,

Thank you Mr. Luv for keeping me from looking like an idiot at the dealership tomorrow. Blades are changed, your video was spot-on. I don't ever recall changing those blades (and no one else would have) but I guess I did. Thanks again.
