Windshield Wipers Replacements for 97 j30t - Nothing fits at store!

[saw192837]

I went to replace my windshield wipers (i just bought a used 1997 t model). However the Bosh Premium's (black label)'s didn't work. Apparently I have that the type of wipers that you have to screw on with that little adapter, only the BOSCH adapter didn't fit (the screw holes weren't aligned right). None of the other wipers in the parts store were compatible.

Is this normal? Did j30's come with special blade attachments? Or did the previous owner do something weird to it?

Where do I get compatible wiper blades?

I have a 93 j30, I tried to do the same thing several years ago and the blades I purchased did not work either. Anyway I needed them for a state inspection and had the place that did my oil replace them. I will research it, I have been doing some work on mine of late and found some places for parts ( cheap ). They might have them, what does the manual say.
