Has anyone found a replacement Wiper blade arm for the Mazda 5 that is the correct size (12" blade) that allows you to Raise the blade away from the window and lock it in place.
Here is a picture of all the farther that the 2013 Mazda 5 wiper arm will pull out, it doesn't come out far enough to use a gas station squeegee, ice scraper or snow brush under it, it also doesn't lock out away from the window for doing maintenance on the window or wiper blade.

Here is a picture of 2003 Pontiac Vibe arm that opens and locks out so you can easily wash, clean, dry, scrape, and brush. It also makes it easier to replace your wiper blade insert. I would consider getting one of those but it is too short, only 11" instead of the M5's 12", I would rather keep with the same size blade.
