Would you have any source for the plastic park switch cover ?

This guy is referenced in other threads on the topic. I know there is another vendor who makes them but I cant recall the name.

Some of these vendors seem to think the TLC is an uber rare Pebble Beach Concourse de Elegance vehicle.

Thanks for sharing this guide, it inspired me to fix my non-working wipers.
When I stripped the mechanism down and cleaned all of the hard grease away, I can see the reason the motor runs but nothing happens is that the sacrificial gear has sacrificed itself, see the stripped teeth in the pic:

Do you know if the part is available as a spare, or is it possible to source one secondhand?

Another unit completed for a mudder! I don’t have a pic right now, but I am also fabbing new nylon grease retainers for these.

Thank you! Couldn’t have done it without your wiring and terminals.
