Put a "Wanted" ad in the classifieds. I have a set that need to be cleaned up/painted, PM me if you are interested. Having shipped several things to the UK, I can tell you that you are much better sourcing them over there unless money is no object. Commercial shippers must get way better rates than individuals.

This is a hard to find part. I used ‘75 wiper arms on mine. I drilled out the center to fit over the ‘68 shaft and used set screws to secure the arm to the shaft. It raining hard here right now, they are gonna get a work out on my way to work today.
