Shower Head and Arm (For Exposed System)

[bron]

I'm trying to find a shower head and arm for my existing, exposed system. The current shower head is too close to the wall and you can't shower without standing on the sloped part of the bath.

I want to install a shower arm to bring the head away from the wall and further into the bath. Sadly, the only ones that I can find are for concealed systems, and require the pipework to come through the tiles and into the arm. I'm not about to take that on right now, as we plan to overhaul the bathroom next year.

Does anyone know of something like this :

That I can use with exposed tube piping.

What is it to connect to?

The Bathstore arms have a thread on the end, 1/2" I think.

Right now I have an exposed mixer tap that has a flexi hose running up to the shower head, which I believe is of industry standard size. My problem is, all these arms I've found so far have the thread / fitting for the water to be fed from where the arm is mounted to the wall, so it's hidden.

Since I'm not supplying the water through the wall, I need an arm that fits to the wall, but you can screw the hose onto it elsewhere.
