I never drive my 914 in the rain. But I do want to have functioning wipers if I ever get caught in an unanticipated storm. I noticed one of my wipers seemed loose when I turned them on. When I removed both from the wiper arms I noticed they had different plastic adapters. One appears to be correct (fits snug and “clicks” on) and the other does not seem right (does not “click” in and stay on the arm).
I cannot seem to find just the adapter to buy online (but maybe I’m not using the correct search terms). Where can I buy one? Or does anybody have an extra? |

Mark,
This one says it will fit 7 and 9 mm arms. Should work right? https://www.pelicanparts.com/More_Info/9646...amp;SVSVSI=0715 |

The two attachments that came with the wiper blade, neither one fit the "wiper" arm on my '83 911SC correctly. I had to remove the clips from my old Bosch set to attached the SWF wiper bladed securely to the wiper arm.“ |
