The rear window wiper arm/cover is an integral, cast in one plastic unit. The metal wiper blade frame snaps into a flexible channel cast into the underside, centre of the arm/cover.
To replace, just lift the arm up and away from the glass with your right hand, grasp one side of the metal blade frame with your left fingers (or pry with a smooth screw driver) pulling away from the arm/cover toward the glass. The blade should pop out easily. Carefully centre the new blade in the channel and push it straight in. Don't push on the rubber part, push on the metal blade frame to avoid distorting the arc of the rubber blade clips. If the blade isn't centred in the arm/cover repeat the process.
That's all there is to it.
