jeff618 Posted January 25, 2010 Report Share Posted January 25, 2010 Trying to save others some time & headaches... You don't have to go to the dealer for a replacement rear wiper blade on the 07-09+ Cadillac Escalade. It looks like the blade and arm are one piece but if you look closer, you'll see the wiper blade can be replaced and its actually quite simple. It's a special rear wiper blade though. There may be other alternatives, but the "Trico Exact Fit Rear Integral Blade" snaps right onto the special rear arm and looks like the factory original. You can find them online. Much cheaper than the dealer alternative and easier/less tedious than messing around with rubber blade refills. Comes with removal and replacement instructions too. Hope this helps.

sonjaab Posted June 13, 2010 Report Share Posted June 13, 2010 Just a note for anyone that has a 07 and up gmt-900 'Lade or other full size GM truck that has been having issues with finding new front wiper blades or even the old fashoned "winter" rubber cover blades read on: The gmt-900 and other 07+ GM vehicles are using the new "pinch mount" beam style blades that are usually only avail. at the GM dealer for $23 bucks EACH! Most big box parts stores don't carry them and they are usually special order items. Anyhoo..........Your local NAPA parts store should carry both the summer $14 and winter (rubber covered) $17 pinch mount beam blades for your gmt-900 trucks. 93 DeVille-13 Chevy Impala 72 GTO - 77 Triumph Bonneville 84 Z-28 Syracuse NY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here are some wiper blade installation videos for both the front "pinch tab" and the rear "snap claw" wiper arm attachments. Both are simple installs. I use the trico neoform on the front and the exact fit on the rear. Neoforms and Exact Fit Rear wipers are on rebate right now - fyi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
