There are different adapters available. The Camping World 71138 is one of them. I got a similar one years ago that had the common " J hook " end. Since then I can just go through the automotive racks and get whatever I want (26, 28, 30) all work okay for me. I always keep a new spare set because they are simple to put on in a few seconds and they have a way of crapping out at inconvenient times. Rainx on the glass is also good so that an emergency failure is not that big a deal.

Works well, now I can buy any wiper arm and replace them very easily and less cost.

Trying to understand how your setup works.
Thanks!

If your wiper blades are bolted to the arms, the wiper system was probably made by Denso. I have the same bolt on blades. I buy any blade and remove the swivel part that the arm normally attaches to. The 6MM bolt fits perfect without an adapter.
