Wanted: Right wiper arm and spindle

Post by mk2-GL-Missoula »

Hey new member here. I own a 1989 VW Jetta GL 1.8L. Both of my wiper arms were stripped and I was able to replace the driver's side one. I was trying to tighten the passenger side one and the nut and thread both twisted off. So now I can't attach a new wiper arm. I'm getting soooo tired of driving around with one wiper! My friends are all wondering why I won't just get a new car but I love my MK2!
I talked to the dealership and Mountain Imports in Missoula and they said that the part is unavailable :(
I NEED: the passenger side "spindle" piece that connects to the wiper arm and a right side wiper arm if possible
Can anyone help me out? I am driving it to Seattle for Labor Day weekend and I really don't want to have just one wiper in the rain!
Any help would be awesome. I can pay by cash or check if local, or check if someone wants to ship them to me. If anyone knows of any online places please let me know. THANKS!

Okay thank you! I also checked out car-parts.com and they had some used assemblies, hopefully I can find something soon! Thanks
