2011 Mazda CX-9
Wiper Blade Size
The 2011 Mazda CX-9 uses 26"" and 16"" front wiper blades with a 14"" rear blade. The blades mount on J-Hook (curved hook) arms. This is a full-size configuration typical of SUVs and crossovers from this era.
The 2007–2015 Mazda CX-9 all use the same wiper blade sizes, so any blade that fits the 2011 model will also fit these years.

J-Hook Installation Guide
J-Hook is the most common wiper arm type, found on the majority of vehicles worldwide. The arm ends in a curved metal hook that the blade adapter clips onto. Nearly all universal replacement blades include a J-Hook adapter, making replacement straightforward.
- 1 Pull the wiper arm away from the windshield until it locks in the upright position.
- 2 Rotate the blade perpendicular to the arm to expose the J-Hook slot.
- 3 Press the small release tab on the blade adapter and slide the old blade downward off the hook.
- 4 Align the new 26"" driver-side blade with the J-Hook opening and slide it upward until it clicks into place.
- 5 Gently lower the arm back onto the windshield to confirm a snug fit.
- 6 Repeat on the passenger side with the 16"" blade.
- 7 Repeat the process for the 14"" rear blade. Rear blades often use a different adapter — check the packaging.
- 8 Spray washer fluid and cycle the wipers to verify smooth, streak-free operation.
Tips
• J-Hook is the most common arm type — most universal wiper blades include a J-Hook adapter in the box.
• Place a folded towel on the windshield before removing the blade. If the bare arm snaps back, it can crack the glass.
• If the new blade wobbles, double-check that the hook is fully seated in the adapter channel.
Rear Wiper Blade
The 2011 Mazda CX-9 has a 14"" rear wiper blade. Rear blades often use a different connector than the front blades — check the packaging for rear-wiper compatibility. Most auto-parts stores stock rear blades separately from front sets.
