Default wiper arms

I have a 97 civic ex that needs two wiper arms. Honda wants 170$ for the driver side and 80$ for the passenger. I've looked online at some sites but have no luck finding aftermarket ones. I'm new to tuner cars and any help (*websites*) is appreciated. Thanks

I've had good experience buying parts from there. They do charge S&H and a 4.99 handling fee, the handling fee is once per order so think of all the parts that you and your friends need and order them all at once.

The other column is the list price, which is generally what a dealer would charge you for the part alone if you took your car there and had them install it in their shop. It's crazy to pay more than that to a dealer when you're going to carry the part out and install it yourself.

I get an error when I click on your link. Is it correct?

I think my dealer told me around $50 for mine.
