you have to push on it by the spring, then pull by the bolt.

remove the nut (12mm i think)...
the arm is spring-loaded, so to remove it you'll need 2 hands...
where you see the 'joint', press down there, and try to lift the end (where you removed the nut from).

thats the best i can do to explain it.... g'luck.

If you cant get a wiper off, I would rethink your hobby.

dont be so harsh man, im sure we all had our boggles sometime or another. as the previous guy said, on the wipers, there is a nut holding it down. all you do is take that nut off and bend the wiper up, as if you were washing your windshield, then yank it straight up. ta-da! have fun!

i just did this last week...make sure to put them back on right (remember which side is which, if you can't visually tell)

Remove nut, press on joint and jiggle it free of the threading.

Anybody know how to get a hatch wiper off of an EK? I need to repaint mine and haven't figured it out yet by just looking at it. I hope I don't have to pull the inside of the hatch apart to get to it....
