Just replaced mine... along with the fronts. Using the Rain X Lattitude.
The rear was a pain to get off. I just bent the old blade frame wide enough to slip over the "J" hook. The new one slides right on.

It is a pain to get off, but it can be done. The easy way is to remove the spare tire.

CAUTION* Make ure you put a nice thick bath towell or = on the glass to prevent yourself from snapping the bare arm onto and cracking or scratching the glass.

Turn the wiper on and stop it in the half way spot and slide the old BLADE down and proceed to cut or bend it with plyers.

It's either that or remove the rear tire. If any one else has and easier way ..jump on in..
