OMG, are you nutz? Definately go to Wal-Mart or an autoparts store for a frickin' wiper arm. You'll pay top dollar at the stealership...

LOL! Been there WAY too often. They're about $3 bucks or so and very easy to install once you see how they're designed.

I went to an Autozone and the blade refillsare no longer sold, you have to buy the complete blade assembly, in other words, you can't keep your car original[&o]. Luckily I have the Ford Service Plan & wiper blades, brake pads, etc. are included(for 3 years).

Always an *** clown around. I will suggest that some blades aren't worn out. If you will clean them with an alcohol wipe, you may find that they still have plenty of life left.
