Question: Changing Wiper Blades on an 86

[adfac]

Honest, I'm not stupid (although I feel like it) but I went to change my wiper blades today and realized I didn't know how to get the existing ones off! They're the "pin" type where each end is spring loaded and there is a pin running through the main hole of the blade. Could someone please tell me how the blade comes off? Thanks.

Amazing what a screwdriver and "e-how" will do (How to Remove Pin Type Factory Windshield Wipers | eHow.com). Answered my own question and I really feel dumb. Sorry for the inconvenience.

The only thing I can add is to put a large towel on the windshield before attempting to remove the pin type blades. The wiper arm can really nick the glass. Fortunately, it wasn't my windshield.:ugh
