Im posting this question and answering it myself, as I couldn't find the answer anywhere on the net, nor is there any instructions in the recently published Haynes manual for the Jazz...

Ok, when you try to remove the wiper blade you will think that it pops off, everything seems to indicate that's how it works and this is why I got stuck because even using a lot of force it doesnt budge.

The trick is to turn the blade on the arm (turning the blade tip towards the car) past the point at which it seems (from the feel) that you should stop. At some point you should find you can just slide the wiper blade off of the arm (towards the rear window and once free slide along the arm and off the car). Use reverse to refit new one.

Once you have done it once it is a simple task, its just without any instructions at all I (and I bet a lot of other people) got worried I might end up breaking the wiper arm trying to work out how the thing came off.

I hope this helps you :)

Haynes add instructions on how to get this thing off! OMG O.o

How do you change the rear wiper blade on a 2004 Honda Pilot?

First-off, the 2004 Honda Pilot has a special rear arm and you need a wiper with an "B" attachment. You can go to your dealer or I know Trico makes a model 14-B (Exact Fit Rear Integral Blade 14-B). There may be others available too. Application guides are at the store or you can 'lookup wiper size' online to find other options/part numbers. I've got the Trico on my Jeep and it fits/works great.The replacement rear wiper blade will come with step-by-step, illustrated instructions and once you have the instructions and the wiper blade/arm in your hands in front of you, it will all make better sense and will an easy maintenance task.Essentially, you rotate the blade to the side and then snap off the blade. The new blade snaps on in the reverse order. Very simple and takes 2-5 minutes usually not requiring any tools.
