Today the 2013 KIA Optima, we're going to install the Michelin Stealth Ultra windshield wiper blades. We work from a part number MCH8524. We're going to have to remove the original wiper blades. Typically there's a small tab that you have to push up or down to release it from the arm. Push tab up and pull the arm down. Notice the style on here is the J style so our new wiper blade will move right into place. We'll take the arm and line it up with the easy lock connector and then it may help to go ahead and rotate it this way then pull it up until it clicks into place. We'll rotate it back down and then we can go ahead and put it against the windshield. Now on the passenger's side, we'll use a different part number due to being a different length.
This will be part number MCH8518. We'll show you a couple other things. The shape of the hard shell on our wiper blade helps keep it aerodynamic so when the wind goes over, it doesn't lift it up from the windshield. That hard shell has segments so it will match the contour of the windshield as well. As I pull it away, you can see the multiple pressure points along the windshield wiper blades. One thing to note, the hard shell is actually independent of the wiper blade too.
This helps protect the wiper blade frame from the ice and snow as well. Squeegee, it is an all natural rubber squeegee with a little graphite coating on it. That helps keep it from skipping on the glass. With that, that will finish it for Michelin Stealth Ultra windshield wiper blades, part number MCH8524 on our 2013 KIA Optima. .
