Wiper Blade Sorted: A TRIDON How-To
> Wiper blades, eh? Simple bit of kit, massive for safety. They keep your windscreen clear from rain, muck, and whatever else the road throws at ya. But sun, heat, and constant use? They'll knacker the rubber over time. Especially if you're out in a Navara tackling tough conditions, or just doing the daily grind in a Honda Accord.
Reckon Your Wipers Are Kaput?
• Streaky business across the windscreen.
• Wipers chattering like they're having a yarn.
• Missed a spot? Bugger.
• Can't see properly in the wet? Dangerous, mate.
• Rubber's cracked, torn, or gone hard as nails.
Will it pass WOF?
Too right they will! Dodgy wipers are a guaranteed WOF fail here in NZ. Clear view = happy motoring.
DIY or Workshop?
Difficulty: 2/10 (Sweet as)
Estimated Time: 5-15 minutes
Tools Required: Nada, usually. Maybe a wee flathead screwdriver for some older clips, but likely not.
🛠️ Bob's "Get It Done Right" Companion Checklist
Before you get cracking, a little prep goes a long way:
• Cleanliness is Key: Give your windscreen a good scrub *before* fitting the new blades. You don't want to grind any old grit into that fresh rubber. Some Glass Cleaner and a Microfibre Towel will do the trick.
• Top Up Your Washer Fluid: While you're at it, make sure your Windscreen Washer Fluid is topped up. No point having clean blades if you're spraying muddy water!
Expert Recommendation
Bob from CARFIX reckons you should swap out your wiper blades at least once a year, or sooner if they're not performing. Especially with our mixed-bag weather. The TRIDON TCB17 is a ripper choice – durable and streak-free for heaps of vehicles. But hey, we get it, different folks, different strokes. Don't skimp on visibility; it's the cheapest insurance you'll ever buy.
Bob @ CARFIX is always on hand to help you work out exactly what part you need for your Nissan Navara, Subaru Impreza, or any other vehicle. Make sure you head over to Bob's Shop for a chat!

🧰 What Else You'll Need:
• Windshield Protection: When the wiper arm is bare, place a folded towel on the windscreen to prevent the spring-loaded metal arm from snapping down and cracking the glass.
• Clear Vision Prep: Clean the windscreen thoroughly with a high-quality Glass Cleaner and microfibre cloth before installing the new blades to remove road film.
• Windscreen Wash: Top up your washer reservoir with a quality windscreen wash additive to keep your screen smear-free.
