How do you change the windshield wiper blades on a 2008 Mazda tribute?

In: Windshields and Wipers [Edit categories]

Answer:

The 2008 Mazda Tribute has the newer style and more rare "pinch tab" wiper arms on the front and the newer style "snap claw" wiper arm attachment on the rear. See sources and related links below for installation videos. Also, purchase the replacement blades first and there will be additional instructions/illustrations on the replacement packages - note that not all wipers will fit on these special arms so be sure to reference the make, model and year of your vehicle for the brand wipers you choose to purchase. Pinch-tab compatible wipers and the correct rear wiper blade is a little bit trickier to find.
