Toyota Genuine Parts - Rubber, Wiper Insert (85214-0E050)

Appears to be new rubber and fits and works perfectly once you get it installed. But it is JUST the rubber piece , so you must carefully remove the old rubber blade, fish the two wire side pieces out of it, install the two wire side pieces into this new rubber blade, and then carefully reinsert the whole assembly back into the wiper arm. Make sure that the prongs on the wiper arm are in the correct groove of the rubber blade because if they pop out , they could scratch your windshield !

This item installed quickly on my 2013 Prius 3 and restored the wiper to "new car" efficiency. Buying the wiper inserts is more cost efficient than buying new blades and takes little effort. Simply slide out the existing insert, being careful not to bend the metal inserts that surround the insert. Once removed, carefully check to see where the two metal inserts are located on the sides of the existing rubber wiper blade insert. After that, I found it easy to simply start at one end, slightly loosen my grip on the removed wiper blade assembly to permit one end of the new rubber insert to be substituted between the two metal pieces, allowing the old rubber insert to fall away. Then, I simply guided the metal inserts into the balance of the rubber inset. Once you have the metal pieces in your new rubber wiper blade insert, simply slide the whole assembly back into the wiper blade. For the passenger side wiper, I removed the blade from the arm for convenience. The other two were easy enough to do while in place. Its more complicated to describe then it is to do. Plan on about 3 minutes per wiper.

This wiper blade is the correct size for any Gen III Prius (2010-2015). I hesitated buying these because some people said they were the wrong size. They are not. I think these reviews should be removed or corrected. What likely happened in those cases is someone, at some point, swapped their OEM blades for non-OEM replacements, hence why they wouldn’t fit. I keep meticulous records of all maintenance and know I have OEM blades. If you do too, then these are your wiper blade inserts. Full stop.

Like the flexibility of the rubber to clear objects stick on windshield !

I used to replace the entire wiper blade assembly on previous cars that I've owned (probably taught to do that when I was younger, or perhaps tricked by marketing over the years). I was searching for new wipers for my Prius... but found that other owners were complaining about the fit of many aftermarket wiper blades. I found several suggestions to simply buy the OEM replacement wiper inserts.So I did. Amazon's website automatically offered the correct size grouping for my pre-saved car. I searched the youtubes, and found instructional videos for blade removal on the front and back, and another video about replacing Toyota rubber wiper inserts. It probably took me 15 minutes to find and watch the videos, remove the old ones, and install the new ones.And they work fine. I think the dealer only charges $35 for this, but I forget exactly. But you might save a little money.

Fits our 2010 prius perfectly! These are just the inserts or blades and not the full wiper assembly. Don't forget that you will have to save the metal pieces from the wipers when you replace the rubber inserts/blades. In total, changing both front wipers and the back wiper blade, it only took about 5 minutes to replace the blades.

Works good, installed on a 2011 Sienna rear window.To install, turn the van on and then the rear blade. Time it so that you turn the van off when the blade reaches the middle of the window, this will make it much easier to install. Slide the rubber wiper out from one side. Make sure to take out the two wire pieces that go the length of the blade as this gives the blade the stiffness and stability for it to stay in the wiper arm. Install those wire pieces into the new blade and then slide it onto the arm from one side. Test it out and you should be good to go... should take you about 5 mins to do.
