Hi Kathy!
The Wiper Technologies Windshield Wiper Blades - Beam Style - Qty 2 # WPR55FR can be a bit of a pain to replace. When I replaced this style wiper in the past, I had to use a rubber mallet to knock them out of the J-Hook while use a pair of pliers to squeeze the little lever. It took more force than I was expecting, but they had been on there for a long time (this was when I still lived in Southern California, so they didn't get a lot of use).
I'd include an install video we have of these going onto an RV, but they just popped out without much force, so that isn't going to be much help. Just be patient and you will get it off.
Did you hit rain during your last trip and found you wipers lacking, or are you getting ready for the winter season?
