Default Wiper Arms

Can you swap the wiper arms off of a 1985 Corvette with the one's from a 1995/96 Model? The arms on my '85 are jacked and I am having issues finding replacements. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated!

Most of the corvette parts suppliers carry the correct wiper arms.

I thought that too. But the places I looked stated that the part was either not in stock, or discontinued. Perhaps I'm just not being patient enough.
