of the 1st generation (2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010,
2011, 2012, 2013 & 2015) Nissan Armada in changing the rear
windshield window wiper blade. Owners of other Nissan or Infiniti vehicles such as the Versa, Cube, Sentra, Altima, LEAF, Maxima, 370Z, Juke, Rogue, Murano, Xterra, Pathfinder, Quest, Frontier, Titan, QX56, Q50, G37, EX37, QX60, FX37, FX50 and QX80 may also find these DIY instructions to be helpful. The replacement wiper blade is 12" (inches) in size. A few compatible wiper blades with their part numbers are as follows: Trico 12-B, Anco AR-12B, Michelin 9512, Valeo R12D, Silblade RB112-B and Bosch H306.

 Lift Tab Out of Slot |
 Pull Wiper Arm Out |
 Rotate Wiper Blade |
| The first step is
to gently pull off the black plastic cover at the base of the wiper arm. Set
the cover aside in a safe place. Then lift the large tab out of the slot in the metal bracket where the center of the wiper arm rests when not in use. Rotate the wiper blade at an angle with the wiper arm. |

| Firmly push the old
wiper blade towards the vehicle to pop the mounting bar at the center out of
the socket in the arm. Turn the wiper blade perpendicular to the wiper arm and slide it out to separate them. I recommend buying the Trico 12-B rear wiper blade since it has excellent reviews on Amazon. |
