Hi all - this may seem like a truly pathetic reason to write a post on this here forum, but I'm having some serious problems replacing the rear wiper blade on my other half's 500L.

I've tried and tried, but the fitting inside the replacement blade just doesn't seem to want to clip into the arm, and I don't want to push so hard that it's going to break it.

Has anyone got any tips on how to do it?
 
Are you sure this wiper is meant to fit your Fiat?

I replaced our rear wiper with ease last year, I had used a Bosch model which did not require an adapter.

The front wipers also replaced with ease, I used cheap Michelin blades from Costco, I bought all the sizes and returned the incorrect sized ones.

Cannot remember the size but definitely wasn't the same size as the one mentioned in part checker sites.

Do check if the hook type is the same as OEM and if it is the same size.
