(* I sprayed some Liquid Wrench on the threads here because, as you can see, there was a lot of rust and corrosion)

Step 4:
Press down on the "elbow" of the wiper arm, and use a flat-head screwdriver to pry the wiper arm off of the threads
(Be careful not to scratch or nic anything; I used a rag to protect the plastic cover under the arm)

Hope this helps. I'm glad I did this simple, but very useful mod. The wipers not only look great, but the
improvement is also very noticable. They are completely silent, and remove the water from the windshield like no
other wiper I have ever seen before. Make sure you buy them from Martyn at VagParts.com; he gave me the best
price, was very friendly, and mailed them to me immediately after receiving my payment. Thanks Martyn!
Feel free to contact me at: bnl107@hotmail.com if you have any questions.
