<VV> Windshield Wiper Arm Removal on a Late Model

[jim bannister]

You have a tool at the end of each one of your arms.  Press on the spring
loaded pivot to release the cocking tension and lift the arm off of its
stud.

Not the tool that most everyoone sells now for taper fit arms with nuts 
to hold them on, you need some levering type like this:

&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9008198&hvtargid=aud-801381245258:pla-569541965640&psc=1

The tool lays on the arm, with the hook pulling up opposite of the arm, 
counteracting the spring.

This tool does NOT touch the car, so it will not chip the paint like 
paint paddles, screwdrivers, Channellocks, etc.
