Wiper shaft hardware question
I am looking for the rubber washer that goes on the outside of the car on the wiper shaft that passes through the body. Is this just a flat rubber washer or is it a bushing of some sort? Mine was missing and I put a neoprene washer on it but it's cracking and didn't fit the shaft correctly.
Thanks,
Mike

They're actually grommets. They look like this.
Available here http://www.wolfsburgwest.com/cart/Detai ... 311955261A as well as most other VW vendors.
They're easier (aka possible) to install by removing the wiper arms and then the wiper-shaft/motor assembly. Then you can install the new grommets and re-assemble everything. It's not as bad as it sounds and well worth it to keep the water out of your bus.

You got it!tractoman wrote:So the shaft comes out and then the grommet goes in with the body in the middle of the grommet and then the shaft goes back through?
