Signs you need to change your Clermont Toyota wiper blades.

How to change your wiper blades
Step #1: Pick the correct wiper blades for your Clermont Toyota.
Your Clermont Toyota has specific wiper blades that are meant for its use. Pick the right size for your car by looking at the owner's manual for your correct wiper blades. If you can't find it, don't worry. When you purchase wiper blades at the auto parts store, use their wiper blade size finder and buy the correct one. Another way is to measure the wiper blades currently on your Clermont Toyota.
Step #2: Place new blades out and position them correctly.
It's time to prepare for replacement. Go ahead, and take the new blades out of their packaging. Once you have done that, lift your wiper arms and position them upright.
Step #3: Slide the old wiper blades out.
If you look at your old wiper blade, you'll see where the rubber part of the blade meets the metal arm. Press the stopper, slide out the old wiper blade, and move it to the side.
Step #4: Slide the new blades into position.
Put your blade into a position so it's able to slide into the hook. Then pull the blade towards the end of the arm, and you'll know it's in place when you hear a clicking sound.
Step #5: Now repeat the process for the other blades!
If you did the first one successfully, the next part would be a piece of cake. So go ahead and repeat the process for the second wiper.
