I have a windshield wiper switch but need a knob. This is the dash mounted switch for a '70.

I have a glove box door but need a box, side bolts and hold down. This is the wide box for a '70, no side vents on the knee pad.

Can anybody help? Thanks.

I have an early parts car with those parts. I pulled the glove box to see how good it is. I have the wiper knob too. The wiper insert markings are worn off.

New wiper inserts are the same as the 70 Karman Ghia. Just about any place that has Classic VW Bug parts will have it.

I've been concentrating on getting my dash together and in the back of my mind wondering how I can paint/restore the inserts, or just leave them...I may go for the "good as new" look. Thanks for the info.

assorted pack of fine sandpaper at flaps, buffing wheel on a drill and some compound, testors paint or nail polish and trim the brush very fine.
