My initial plans were to use the wiper from a Mercedes W124 /300E (shown on the left) because it has a nice cam action for full windshield coverage. This however would require a large slot for the rotating cam or redesigning the whole front cowl or lid.

I will instead use the late 80's Scirocco wiper (shown on the right) in a centered 914 wiper mount...

Why? Because it's a "racy" European feature and will simplify the front even further...

Cool dood. I looked over me mum's 500, and thought about how cool that would be.

I also thought about what it'd take to use the upper cowl, and hood tunnel from a 911, to get the fresh air intake feeding from the front, instead of the stock leaf strainer.
