Ah mate, bad news. 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

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.
