How to Fit Wiper Blades on a Citroën C3
Fitting wiper blades with a Pinch Tab (Push Button) fitting is straightforward. Here’s a step-by-step guide:
- Lift the wiper arm away from the windscreen until it locks in the upright position.
- Press the release tab on the pinch tab (push button) connector and slide the old blade off the arm.
- Align the new blade with the arm hook and slide it on until you hear a click.
- Gently lower the arm back onto the windscreen — don’t let it snap down.
- Repeat for the other side, remembering the sizes differ: 24″ driver, 16″ passenger.

How we check fitment for this guide
We cross-reference fitment figures against manufacturer specifications and OE-supplier catalogue data where available, and matched to the standard codes that actually govern fit — battery type/group sizes, wiper lengths and fitting types, bulb fitment codes, tyre size markings, and oil specifications. We work by make, model, year, engine, and build date, because a single model can take different parts across its life. Where the right part depends on your exact vehicle, we tell you to confirm by registration or VIN. More on our method →
