If only it was that easy. So far,
- i tried hitting the side of the arm near the stud (trying to break it loose some how).
- pulling the arm up and use a hammer to hit the stud
- used a electric wire, wrap around the arm near the stud and yank it hard

any tips would be appreciated...

Use a wiper arm puller.. pretty simple works like a pulley puller only smaller

50:50 Mix of automatic tranny fluid and acetone (nail polish remover) is the best thing for removing stuck bolts and what not. Sounds weird, but it really works. Try some of that and see if it'll help you out, Sounds like someone forced the wrong arm on in the first place.

I usually just flip the arm up and it wiggles off.

I don't have problem with the hatch wiper arm, in fact i've already deleted my rear wiper a while ago hehe... is the driver side windshield wiper arm.

So i've returned the wiper puller, and got my 36$ back since it didn't fit in at all. I need to find a super narrow, small puller now...
