    1970 911S Rear Wiper (15") refill?

    I have the Rear wiper on my 1970S. Silver and 15" blade. I can not find a replacement blade in the US. DOnt want to order from overseas unless I know it fits - went thru a lot of the older threads, but they are pretty dated. Any ideas?? Pretty nice car and want to keep it concours. Thank you.

    I'm guessing that your car is a ROW car? Pretty sure that the blade and arm should be black unless they still put silver arms and blades on some random cars from Italy or something.

    ^^^^^^^^^^^
    Looks like a 67 wiper assy. A good friend of mine had a bunch of 67 rear wiper add on kits from Porsche. The fact that the car started out in US, gives more credit to the car not coming from the factory with the rear wiper. Just MHO. It's a really beautiful car, though.
