Here is part of an email that I got today from Pelican
"Unfortunately, we recently discovered that one or more of the parts you ordered are No Longer Available (NLA). These are: 111-953-519G Windshield Wiper Switch Assy, 924 (1976-80) NO LONGER STOCKED" I was planning on doing the electric wiper switch conversion but may have to scrap the idea I guess. Does anyone know where I can find the above mentioned part number? |

This is where the drop ship company's fall short.
Contact: Stoddard ZIMS Strasse GPR just to name a few. These places actually carry stock. The top two have stuff sitting on shelves that you wouldnt beleive. B |

I bought one from GPR. It was from a 924 and he had new and used. I bought a new one but can't remember what it cost. Easy installation although it had to somewhat modified. It also has a connection for electric windshield washers.
Cheers, Elliot |

VW part number, the switch in my car and my son's '73 bug look exactly the same.

I bet you can buy a complete 924 for the money of a new wiper-switch (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

Both big time NARPs. Both reviled by the pinky lifters, and loved by the folks that love them. Zach |

What is the benefit from this mod? Doesn't the late style 914 wiper switch have the capability to switch an electric pump if you break off a little plastic tab or something? I seem to remember sirandy did a how-to using a 911 pump and a stock switch.
