Sorry I can't help, but I know Aeromotive will have a nice covering plug if you want to remove it :) I'm going the other way ... From no wiper to having one ... If I can find a mechanism at a reasonable cost :( Good luck with your search. Have you tried UK SAABs? There is certainly one person having a parts clear out at the moment. You might get lucky. Drop a wanted on and see how you go. Paul 1989 900 Turbo S http://saab.go.dyndns.org/
