[DeTomaso] Removing Wiper Arm

[Jerry R Knotts]

I don't know if mine are different than the others described below, but: 
If you lift the wiper blade and arm up about a foot the wiper arm will lock 
up extracting the release tab.  They then slide off the splined shaft.  The 
reverse is true for the reinstallation.  The indexing can sometimes be 
tricky because I have trouble getting the correct alignment on the spline 
with the wiper blade sticking up in the air.  Once I return the blade and 
arm to the windshield sometimes I have to pop it back up and readjust it on 
the spline.

YMMV.
