Best Answer

1. Buy the correct-fit replacements. The 2004 Toyota Highlander takes a special 12" rear wiper blade for the special rear arm. You may have to go to your dealer or you may want to look into "Trico Exact Fit Rear Integral Blades" that fit these new special arms - you can find them online. (there may be others available too)

The good news is - specialized rear arms do not automatically mean the wiper blade is difficult to change - it just means you need to get the right blade for easy (and successful) installation.

Correct replacement windshield wiper blades are not only correct length, but also correct attachment. Never just buy by length only. Always lookup your vehicle in an application guide at the store or now-a-days you can 'lookup wiper size' online. The key to an easy install is correct size/correct part numbers.

2. The new replacement wiper will have step-by-step, illustrated instructions for removal and installation. Take your new wiper blade and instructions out to your vehicle and physically get the old and new wipers in your hands and take a look. The instructions will make 100% sense once you're looking and touching them.

3. Most wiper replacements snap off and on, do not require tools and take approximately 2-15 minutes.

The Toyota Highlander has the most common hook-end wiper arms. See sources and related links below for installation videos. Also, purchase the replacement blades first and there will be additional instructions/illustrations on the replacement packages. Locate and press the tab or button where the wiper blade is inserted into the hook of the wiper arm and pull wiper blade out of hook. You may have to rotate and flex the blade to make enough clearance for the hook to pass through.
