Default wiper arms please help

When I bout my 95 ta it had the reverse “upside down j hook” connector and I have to fabricate wipers to fit because no one carry these anymore they are discontinued at the dealer. Help on getting rid of these and replacing with normal ones?

I just got a Set from Oreilys its a special blade they are 12$ each.
The 93-97 is diff from the 98-02s blades.

I got the ones from walmart they didn't fit almost though they had little tab on inside could grind that down then it would let them swing around.

Rainx does make one that will fit 93-97 but there 18$ each.

You want number 22-24 blade they made for 93-97 Firebird/Camaro Only.

You need 24-9R blades. They are exact fit blades. They're on amazon.

You could always find a set of wiper arms from a newer f-body and put them on so you can run normal blades

true but finding the replacement is cheaper and less work. i bought the 24-9r blades on amazon and they were just the rubber part not the whole thing
