Type 181 Wiper Motor Cap

Protect the vital electrical components of your VW’s wiper system with this rubber wiper motor cap, designed to fit all years of the VW Trekker (Type 181/182) including international variants such as the Thing and Safari. Fitted over the exposed rear of the wiper motor, this cap shields the motor from water, dust, and debris—helping to extend its service life and prevent corrosion or short circuits.

Made from durable rubber and molded to the correct shape for a secure fit, this good quality reproduction offers a practical and cost-effective solution for replacing lost or cracked original caps. It’s a simple yet essential part for anyone maintaining or restoring one of VW’s most rugged aircooled models.

This cap is sold individually, and fits all Trekker, Thing, and Safari models from 1968 to 1983. No tools are needed for installation—just slip it over the motor and ensure a snug fit.
