This replacement wiper switch knob complete with insert and washer activation rod is designed for all VW Beetles and Karmann Ghias from August 1967 onwards with the wiper switch mounted on the dashboard. Perfect for restorations or repairs, it faithfully replicates the size and function of the original switch knob, ensuring smooth control over both the wiper and washer systems.
The knob includes the washer activation rod, allowing you to operate the screen washer system by pressing the centre of the switch — exactly as on the factory setup. The sturdy construction provides long-lasting durability, while the design matches the classic VW dashboard style.
This part can also be used on VW Baywindow Buses, offering a reliable functional replacement for damaged or missing knobs. However, please note that while the fit and function are correct, the appearance differs slightly from the original Baywindow design.
Ideal for owners looking to maintain period correctness in their interior or simply to restore lost functionality without compromising style.
