I have a hard time finding 11" old-style wiper blades for my M35s. I put modern arms on the M37 since it had none when I got it, but I'd rather stay stock with the M35. I bought one fancy stainless-steel old-style blade at a marine supply store but the price was fairly shocking.
Clint's right that they just hook in. It looks like something missing, but that's the way they are. I think the only reason they changed to the modern style is for curved windshields that need an arm that can apply pressure at many points on the blade. The old hook-style ones must still work fine if they use them on the flat windshields on boats, which are exposed to more wind and rain than most trucks will ever see.
