.Hoping to find someone willing to part with an early pair of wiper arms, if they have blades on them, that's a bonus.
Thanks in advance

I used Mitsuba brand japanese wiper arms on my build. They occasionally appear on eBay and are EXACTLY like the TNK´s.

This is one I found:

Here you can see them mounted on my build with OEM blades:

What does the manual mean by "Pilot Meter" light? - Instrument cluster lights is my guess.

There was one but I waited too long, someone bagged it. That's a pretty close resemblance my friend, thanks for putting it out there. These oem are about impossible to find.

More will show up, guaranteed. Time is your best ally. Sometimes it just makes sense to be practical.
The thing about these manufacturers is that they competed for the Japanese market amongst themselves so ended up making very similar products that could be sold as an alternative to their competition. I have found that many Datsun components are almost identical to Toyota components. Are they OEM? Not for exact Toyota application but one works with what one has.

Your wiper arms look like the 9/67 (68 model) to 1/75 (end the 74 model).

I may have one Japanese aftermarket arm (not OEM). I am out of town but when I get back I'll reach out and let you know. Its just one though.

Thanks for all your help with these wiper arms guys. As several of you pointed out, there's quite a few aftermarket options that will work just fine and look the part. I went with these I found on ebay, plus I bought some 9" blades to fit:

These should bolt right onto the motor shaft perfectly, and again, look the part. All in for 2 arms and blades, $50.
I'll be spending cash saved on other items I needed.
Consider this concluded.
