One of the push in clips? You can buy these from Advance Auto or most large auto parts stores.

This is the adapter that passes the water to the wiper arm.

Wow. I can't find this anywhere either. Might it come with the wiper arm assembly? Maybe contacting a dealer (e.g., CorvetteCentral/Parts123) would prove helpful.
