Need someone with helms re: wiper adjustment

I have found that my driverside wiper, upon reaching the endpoint of it's arc, will hit the edge of the windshield at the seal and make a "tap" noise each time it wipes. When I first got the car, I think it didn't arc as far, and actually left a gap at the top of it's arc from the side of the pillar/each of windshield.

Is there a way, for those who know or have a Helm's, to remove the wiper arm from it's attachment and reposition it on some other notch or something like that? Will I need to remove the hood or something?

Thanks,
Jack

a super easy fix!!!!

take a look at joint where the wiper arm meets the car, there is a black nut on top of the joint, get a socket to go over that nut, loosen, reposition the wiper, tighten (not too tight you can strip it, just snug it in).

DONE!!!!
