Default Wiper part needed...

Just wondering about that little plastic clip that holds the wiper blade assembly to the actual wiper arm.

I had an issue this weekend where it popped open and the wipe blade was free to move around a bit too much.

Fortunately I didn't lose the whole blade

I think I have resolved the issue with a slight adjudement I made to the blade (I think i was hitting the A-pillar and getting caught up), but if this doesn't fix it, obviously I will need a new clip.

So the question is, where do I get one?

Is this a common part, and don't forget, I don't have GM dealers down here...

I can pick one up for you at Bloomington Gold from the swap area. The only problem is that this isn't until the end of June. If you can wait that long I'll be glad to get it for you along with any other parts you might want. Just as long as they will fit in the back of the vert. I just mailed a Volkswagen book to a guy in Sydney through Ebay. It cost twice as much to ship it as he paid for it!!!

That'd be cool if I can't source it any other way.

Anyone else know where I might find it?

The funniest thing is if you look a tthe assembly pics of the wipers (on zip or ecklers etc etc), they show every part but this
