Matrix passenger side wiper arm...

[MatrixMonkey]

Morning all,

I stripped the grip (didn't clear the ice around the wiper before turning wipers on) on the passenger side front wiper arm of my 2005 Matrix; Toyota dealership wants $CDN 90 for the new part, however the Buick dealership (was Buick/Pontiac before) wants $CDN 42 for the wiper arm (big difference). Can anyone advice if the passenger side wiper arm is the exact same part of both the Matrix and the Vibe ?

I can confirm the blades are exactly the same so I would be very surprised if the arms were different. GM used a different type of wiper blade on similar cars and still matched Toyota on the Vibe, I'd feel safe getting the GM one if I were you.
