I was looking to take the cowl off for the first time and clean out any debris. Went to remove the wiper arms according to everything I've seen & read, and realized that mine don't have that handy little tab on the bottom that folks usually pry down with a flathead screwdriver. In fact, I can't even really grab the little tines sticking out of the bottom with pliers at all.

The J-hook up top looks like it is supposed to move down but I don't know if there's a specific method at all. I'm being led to believe that these are not the factory arms.

Any tips/tricks on getting these things off?

Yeah that worked. No idea why I didn't try before. I kept pushing down.

Under the cowl is surprisingly clean and no seized screws.

Are those original Mopar wiper arms? I didn't run across that latch when I was looking at the FSM or in my owners manual.
