Default Wiper arm restoring

Hi guys, I'd like to restore the functionality of the left wiper arm. As you can see from the attached picture, I'm missing some hose and other stuff. AIM is not useful... Any picture/help??? thanks

assuming you have the pipe on the arm, you are only missing the hose from the connector to the arm

Most parts vendors have diagrams. Try Zip as I know they do.

Then you need this part which attaches to the arm

This shows the complete arm with the pipe attached and the connection to the hose you already have

Thanks MelWff! Is there anything else attached to the end of the tube, where the water exits?
