So much for the J returning my bosch blades tomorrow.

This video helped me so much on changing the wiper blades on my Toyota Tundra

For the people that can't get this stupid adapter off. Use force. And just grab it off. Bosch is really stupid for pre-installing it

[itsalex]

Came here for instructions on how to take off the original piece that comes on the wiper and was wildly disappointed - the stupid thing can’t be changed easily such a waste of money!!

[randonceccoli]

These are such such such a pain in the ass..

[luisquintero]

I got frustrated and just broke the entire thing in a drunken rage. I’ll buy a different brand tomorrow!!!

For anyone doing a Mazda CX5, you have to take off the attachment that comes on it by default. I found it best to just rip it off from the arrow side. For the CX5 it is attatchment 6, and it slides right on.

Einstein himself couldn't figure out how to install these goddamn things. They are going BACK And I am getting something that can be installed in 5 minutes instead of 5 hours

[druxshiestyiii]

‼‼‼‼IF ANYONE CAME HERE LIKE I DID BECAUSE YOU COULDNT GET THE #2 ADAPTER "OFF" ALL YOU DO IS PUSH THE 2 TABS IN THE BACK INWARD & THEN THE ARROW SIDE SHOULD BE POINTED UPWARD AT THIS POINT.. THEN YOU JUST PULL UP ON THE ARROW END UNTIL IT POPS OFF. YOU DO HAVE TO USE SOME FORCE BUT ALSO BE GENTLE.. DONT JUST TRY TO RIP IT OFF!! USE JUST ENOUGH FORCE NEEDED UNTIL IT COMES OFF. I DID IT WITHOUT BREAKING IT. HOPE THIS COMMENT HELPS. LET ME KNOW!!

None of these adaptors fit on my 2014 toyota sienna ..wasted an hr trying to figure shit out and realized shit don't even go with the metal arm on the sienna. Its the loop arm

Thanks Netherland for a clear explanation why Canadian ICON Bosch wiper blades will never fit my VW. They sell them with one adapter each, in a couple of styles. The store offers a chart of compatibility which is completely wrong, and is up to the consumer to figure out how wrong. The style recommended by the store for top load narrow is same as top load standard, which is wrong obviously. For top load standard, adapter #2 is needed (ICON OE as it's sold here) and I need adapter #4 for top load narrow. I had to trim the sides of that adapter and it fits, but I feel like it's going to fly in the windshield of the lucky car driving behind me. I wanted these blades, but the lack of proper adapters makes them unusable. I haven't seen one model from Bosch with adapter #4 on them. There is one set, but I'm not sure about the blades and so far I know it's sold in Europe, but in Canada, haven't seen it yet. Safest bet, just go original VW.

This is not fitting for 2017 sonata, yet the app says it fits before I picked it

[bradybarnett]

The Bosch icon blades I bought for my toyota didn’t come with half of those pieces. I have just a hook. How do I get them on?

[McGill]

What if you have a normal hook shaped wiper?

[AiRsOfTfReAk]

For those with the j hook you have to buy the type without the adapters. I made the mistake of buying the oe type when you need the A type. Oe type has all the different adapters and the A type is for the j hook.

In my Renault Clio 3, I took out the original attachment that was on the blade.
You can First take the blade, & then the attachment. Then slide it in & you will hear the clicking sound

[semperfdude]

very easy to fit, and silent operation not the juddering ones I had before

[TheSinsalida]

So much for universal, I can't get these to fit my 2019 subaru crosstrek

[Diz_Dude]

None of these adapters fit a 2016 vw jetta sport

Just snapped a piece off of wiper from pulling off the installed adapter, what kind of junk is this. I guess it's 50/50 whether it'll break or not when removing. How about they don't install one at all and let the consumer attach whichever one they need to!!
