Locate the sliding part of the rubber strip, then you can remove the fixing clip at this end, using needle-nose pliers to assist in disassembly if necessary. Use the clip to pry up the metal buckle, then the rubber strip can be removed. To install the new wiper blade rubber, simply reverse the above steps.

Replacing the wiper blades on a Sagitar is actually quite simple—I've done it myself. First, park the car on a level surface and turn off the engine. Remember to lift the wiper arm; gently pull it up until it locks in place. Be careful not to let it snap back and shatter the windshield—I used a towel to protect the glass from scratches. Next, locate the old wiper blade. Most Sagitar models have clips—just squeeze both sides and push to release it. Then, take out the new blade (usually a branded one bought online for a few dozen yuan) and align it correctly, sliding it in from one end to ensure an even and secure fit. After installation, slowly lower the wiper arm back into place and test the wiping effect by spraying some water on the windshield. If it doesn’t wipe cleanly, the blade might be misaligned or of poor quality. Replacing them annually ensures driving safety, as worn-out wipers can also damage the glass.

Replacing the wiper blade rubber on the Sagitar is simple, and it only took me a few minutes on my first try. First, lift the wiper arm, but don't pull too hard to avoid damage, and find a safe position to secure it. The old rubber usually has a slot, so just gently pull it out. Prepare a new rubber blade of the matching model, align it with the wiper frame during installation, and push it in until you hear a click to secure it. The key is to replace it when dry to prevent the rubber from getting wet and slipping. If there are streaks after testing, check if the rubber is fully and evenly inserted or consider getting it replaced at a 4S shop, but I highly recommend DIY—it saves money and hones your skills. Regularly inspect the rubber for cracks and replace it early for peace of mind.

To replace the Sagitar wiper blade rubber, first manually lift the wiper arm, avoiding contact with the glass. Gently remove the old rubber by pinching the clips. Purchase compatible new rubber strips online and install them by aligning the slots. It's recommended to buy long-lasting types to enhance visibility in rainy conditions. The entire process is tool-free, requiring only hand-eye coordination. Prioritize safety by proceeding slowly.

When the wiper blade rubber ages and doesn't clear properly, I replace it myself—first lift and secure the wiper arm; remove the old rubber strip by gently pulling it out; when installing the new rubber strip, ensure the direction is correct and push it into place. If it doesn't wipe well during testing, the rubber strip might not be seated flat or the wrong size was purchased. Going to a professional shop is quicker, but doing it yourself saves 20-30 yuan; check for wear monthly.

To replace the Sagitar wiper blade rubber, start by lifting the wiper arm gently and securing it; removing the old rubber usually involves pinching the clip to push it out; align and slide the new rubber into place until it clicks. I performed the replacement on a dry day to prevent scratches, then tested the wiper's performance post-installation. Regularly changing the rubber can prevent windshield damage; inspect it every season to avoid nighttime driving risks, saving money and maintaining the vehicle.
