hi does anyone have a decent rear wiper motor for sale my care is a 1988 944 lux bought 2 of ebay and one didnt work at all
other one started smoking

Hi,

When the rear wiper motor packs up, most owners replace it with a grommit, nut and bolt to bung up the hole in the rear screen for around 99p.

If you really want to replace it, you could try Porschapart for a good second hand rear wiper unit. I've been told that the rear wiper off a Renault Megane will fit and gives better wiper coverage at 20".

Unfortunately though, the wiper is set on the wrong side of the boot and IMO wipes the wrong side. Something that obviously benefits left hand drive cars.

Hope this helps.

not sure where to get a bung from they want £20 on ebay for one the shaftsize i have no idea off but aint they all the same on 944 its just the fitment is a little different

I have a 88 944 that I am removing a working rear wiper from. I just need to find a bung first

I used an M6 cap screw & washers (Stainless) & a couple of black tap washers drilled 5.5mm. The washers are tapered & fit the hole on mine but there are two sizes. Mines the small one. Later hatches had a bigger hole. (Though tap washers come in larger sizes!) Don't pay £20 for a bung thats a rip off. It takes minutes to make your own. Grommets can be hard to find unless you wander around scrap yards a lot!
