I got my drivers side arm off no issue. Picked it up just far enough for the clip to move. Used a flat screw driver and pushed forward on the clip...clip popped off and I used a flat head to work under the arm where it attached to the spindle. Boom..right off.

Passenger side, picked it up to get clip to move, clip is just flopping around on there in this position...no matter what position I put the clip in, arm will not release with any reasonable amount of prying at its base. Am I supposed to fully pop out this clip? The driver one popped out VERY easy. But almost looks as if it should not have come out lol.
What do you pros say at this lol?
Here is a pic of said clip I am referring too.

Should be able to lift arm far enough to pull clip out, let arm down to rest on clip, then use now-more-rigid arm to rock off of the transmissiom

I have a tool that was common in the past to assist in wiper removal, but don't know if they're still sold today, It does essentially the same thing, provides more leverage and helps keep the arm rigid during removal

Ok got it. So just making sure I understand. That clip SHOULD come fully out that I have pictured? It did SUPER easy on driver and then a second lil clip that looks like it sat on two tabs was there out too.

I have the same tool and it works well.

Thanks fellas! SS_Malibu, that did it! Came right off. Appreciate it! I am wondering of the drivers side was broken...as it came off clip and all with no effort.
Then both these clips were there.
