Hi Steve. I am not sure what Marty means by "point out", but here is an image of both of my trucks.
The WDX on the left has the correct older style of arms. These amount to basically heavy gauge wire. While in the "park" position, they angle down towards the cowl lights, then make a turn out to a flatter angle, aimed more towards the mirror heads. The end clips that attach to the blades are set at an angle almost parallel to the upper part of the arm near the wiper motor.
The B3PW on the right has the correct arms from the next generation. They are made from thin flat stock. They do not have a bend anywhere in the arm, but the end clamps are set at a slight angle to the arm.
Are you sure you have the correct wiper blades? They should be no longer than 8-1/4 inches, shorter if you can find them.
