OK folks, my Speedster has no wipers. How do I resolve this?

"No wipers" as in never installed, or as not currently functional????
Either way, you could get a wiper motor assembly from a VW supplier (CIP1, SoCal Imports, Mid-America, etc) and install it per the CMC build manual. Those after 1968 are (I think) 2-speed versions and really easy to work with.
I also believe that the OEM VW wiper arms are the same on most Speedsters, but I don't know what others use for wiper blades - I suppose you can get those (and the arms, too) from Vintage or Beck to make sure they'll fit. Beyond that, I can't help as my wiper setup is from Specialty Power Windows and totally different from anyone else.
Lots for under $30 plus shipping on Samba. Try to get one with the shaft mounting nuts.
Thank Guys, Just found all your reply's in the spam box. It's never had them fitted and has a lexan windshield fitted that's got to go. CMC build manual. I'd like one of those. Where would I get one?
