I love the 3 wiper configuration on the Toyota FJ Cruiser, however, there is a very limited selection of quality blades for the center and passenger side. In an attempt to remedy this I decided to modify 2 rainX Latitude Wiper Blades. The shortest blade available is 16 inches and the center and right blades need to be 14 inches. Here are the steps I followed to create 2 14 inch blades.

The end caps must first be removed. They fit into notches on the side and must be pried off.

 Once the both end caps are removed all the parts of the blade can also be removed.

After the parts are all removed they need to be shortened.

The blade can but shortened by 2 inches.

The Metal blade spring must be trimmed by 1 inch on each and and the end cap retaining notches cut into the spring.

Once all the parts have been trimmed the blades can be reassembled.

With these blades installed I now have a great set of winter wipers.
