Rear Wiper Arm Nut Size

[sdfgsteve]

Does anyone know what the rear wiper arm nut size/pitch is on a KZN185? I've got a replacement arm, but the existing nut is seized on so I need to cut it off. And I can't wander into B&Q with the tailgate to find out.

I don't know, but what size socket fits the nut? If it 10mm then it will most likely be an M6 x 1mm. If 12mm socket, it should be an M8 x 1.25mm.
Any help?

It may have been 10 before I rounded it. 9 is too small. My friend suggested it may be 9.5, which roughly corresponds to 3/8". Definitely metric you think?

Should all be metric on the surf.

Same size nut is used on the earlier models along with lots of other Toyota vehicles, so I can look at mine tomorrow sometime and let you know. Otherwise, someone here may be able to do it earlier, if they have same vehicle as yours, or even the KZN or LN130.

Nut is M6 x 1mm. Socket size is 10mm.
