Expert showcases wiper blade fitting videos on YouTube

Wiper blade manufacturer Trico has produced hundreds of fitting videos on its YouTube channel.

While wiper blades are perceived as a relatively easy product to fit, many drivers still struggle, which creates an obvious revenue stream for workshops to capitalise on. However, even some technicians find wiper blades tricky, which is why Trico created a wealth of fitting videos to refer to the brand’s YouTube channel.
