#5 looks like what I need - is it really just pop in/out or is there some trick to it? somebody must have done it before...

You have to remove the wipers. There are a few that have done it, I'm sure they will chime in soon. I still need to do mine

I did it. Pop caps off wipers arms. Remove both tapered bolts. Wiggle arms off. I think the in cabin air filter needs to come off.

Pretty easy.

Use some blue painters tape to mark where the wipers currently sit, it makes the reinstall much easier.

I did it in my garage in 2 minutes before I left for school. Very simple and makes the car look much cleaner!
