Removing wiper blades?

Hello,

A few people recommended the SilBlade as a replacement Windsheild Wiper Blade for the 2001 Acura TL. They arrived with some very simple instructions on how to install them. What I have to admit is that I have no idea how to remove the old ones! I looked at them and could not figure it out. Their design looks nothing like the silblade snap mechanism IMO. Could someone help someone who leaped before they looked?

Thank you

Pull the blade arm up off the car. Now rotate the blade so that it is perpendicular (forms a T) to the blade arm. You should see a little tab now exposed that points down toward the windshield. Push it in, and at the same time push the entire blade down towards the car. Then just slide it off the hook.

Hope that made sense. There are diagrams in the owner's manual.
