Thanks for the advice. When it wouldn't go in, I thought I must be doing something wrong, and I was worried about using that much force in case I damaged something. Having seen this, I tried again with extra force and they're now fitted nicely.
Spent a while trying to fit onto my civic was totally confused by all the attachments that came in the box. Did not look right the way the metal is exposed at the top, anyhow they are now and thank you for confirmation that I put them on correctly.
I agree they look rough when fitted, as I mentioned elsewhere, my partner's Suzuki has similar stealth blades, same fittings as the video but has air-smoothed inserts, much neater. OEM blades AFAICT.
Good idea to post a video, the instructions with the packaging are awful. I guessed how to fit them. Mine weren't too difficult but I always pull the arm away from the screen in the vertical position. The first, larger, blade went on easily, the second small blade took a lot to make it click. It's not a great fixing - I'm not convinced by it. I usually use Bosch, thought I'd try these as they were on special offer and Michelin products are good. I have the same fittings as you and as fitted I think they look a little ragged around the edges, shame there wasnt some sort of cap to palace over the fitting. My partner's Suzuki has stealth like blades on the same fittings and they've got air-smoothed type covers, much neater. I note too that in the USA, same fittings as ours (as in your video) but completely air-smoothed fitting on theirs etc. I'll wait and see how well they work - I often end up back with Bosch though🤔🤔 Also Bosch come in cardboard boxes, ideal for storing spares or perfect for recycling, the Michelin packaging was bubble type with cardboard bases, not very enviro friendly.
Thanks! Excellent vid. For some reason, mine went on fairly easily. But they’re secure. Much appreciated old boy.

Sometimes the plastic lugs snap off due to the force, so best not to do this when the plastic is too cold.

The 4 different clips had me confused, this helped thanks
This is very useful, thank you.
Glad it helped.

Thanks it worked!
