    Much thanks. I've been trying to get this done for a hour. The included directions are cryptic and virtually useless. I spent half my time just looking for a RUclips to show me how. Finally found yours! Took all of 3 minutes to watch your video and get the job done.

    I was today years old when I learned how to do this thanks to you. I’ve had new wipers for months in the garage and my husband said they didn’t for my fusion..all we had to do was change the clip! Thank you so much!

    Thank you very much for this video. I struggled for about 15 minutes, before I decided to watch a video. As you mention, the instructions are worthless. I started to watch 2 other videos on installing Michelin wipers, but they used different clips.
    Once I watched your video, it took me less than 5 minutes to install the wiper on my 2017 Ford Fusion. It is worth noting, that the wiper doesn't slid down on the arm quite as far. When it wipes, the track is about 3/4" higher than the old one. That doesn't cause any problems, but I thought that your viewers should know. Thanks again.

    I can pull and rebuild your car engine. I can build you a house and do all of the electrical and plumbing. However, These wiper blades and instructions were not giving me a chance to succeed. You figured it out and made a clear and concise instructional video. You ARE THE MAN. Thank you. I thought I bought the wrong type for my 2014 Explorer. Thanks a gazillion !!!!!

    I want to remind folks to put a towel on the windshield at the "strike point" where the spring loaded wiper arm might hit. It is easy to bump the arm while you are trying to load the clip and it will slap down and crack the windshield, I know because it happened to me!

      Please don't kick your dog. Your dog is the only one who will love you forever. A buddy was once complaining that his girlfriend didn't like his dog, and was giving him an ultimatum. Another friend told him, "Here's what you do. You lock both of them in the trunk for an hour, then let them out. See which one still wants to kiss your face. That's the one you keep."

    I'm surprised they were using that style wiper arm on the 2012 Escape because my 2012 Fusion was still using the old style hook which was so much easier. My 2018 Fusion has the same style as the one in your video. I also tried using those Michelin brand wipers and the damn thing just wouldn't stay on. Tried using that adapter and still no luck. Got one at Costco on sale for $8 and the dealer wants $20 per.

    I was lost at first on your video but saw that the middle adapter you were talking about is already installed on my blade. Going to try to see if this works now. I also think the next time I am at Costco I am going to read them the riot act about incompetent instructions with the products they sell. This has been an issue going on for years now and somehow no one had done anything about it.
