Beetle Wiper Arm Cap - 1973-79

This black wiper arm nut cap is a simple but important finishing piece that fits over the securing nut on wiper arms using this later style fitting. It protects the retaining nut from dirt, moisture and corrosion while also giving the wiper arm a neat, factory-correct appearance. If your original cap is missing, cracked or loose, replacing it helps tidy the scuttle area and protects the fixing underneath.

The cap simply presses over the exposed wiper arm nut, covering the fastening point once the arm is fitted and tightened. Although small, it helps prevent water and grime building up around the fixing, which can make future removal harder and spoil the look of the vehicle. This makes it ideal for everyday use, restoration work and replacing lost originals.

Finished in black, this cap was originally used on Beetle models from August 1972 onwards, including 1303, plus Baywindow Bus, Type 25/T3, Type 3 from 1970 onwards, Karmann Ghia from August 1972 onwards and Golf Mk1 models. It also fits various other VW models that use the same style wiper arm fixing. Please check your existing cap and wiper arm style before ordering.
