I replace with silicon inserts. I've never removed the ends--just remove the blade, squish the insert a bit till the end goes through the slit and you can pull it out.I've got the refills, but I am not strong enough to remove that little plastic cup at the end of the blade. Is there any secret I need to know?
I got them from Amazon and they sucked. (Un)fortunately I had my windshield cracked a few days later and Safelite put new wipers. They work like a charm.Alternatively, you can buy four aftermarket rubber wiper refills (e.g., these from Amazon) for about the same cost as one Honda-branded refill. The ones I linked are very simple to replace, have worked well, and are much cheaper than buying four replacement blades.
