Did the 73+ cars have a option for delayed wipers? what about 70-72 cars? My recent FFC drive there and home it would have been nice to have delayed wipers, I hate manual delayed wipers. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)
Anyone added delay wipers to the pre 73 914? One nice thing about having the wiper control on the dash, no chance of turning wipers on while AXing. Now hitting the turn signal is a different story (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/dry.gif) |

i did just that, but i cheated ... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) not only did i use the steering column from a '74, i also replaced my old and rotten main wiring harness with one out of a '74. wires matched up perfectly! you'll have to (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/sawzall-smiley.gif) the plate that mounts the column to the underframe to make it fit. the early mounting frame is narrower. hard to describe and i don't have pics, but it can be done ... oh, and the '74 shaft going down to the firewall steering coupler has a different length and needs to be re-notched to fit correctly. if you don't do that, the coupler will bind when you turn the wheel ..
