Ask an expert

Wipers dead, dragging, or parking in the wrong spot? On an air-cooled Beetle the whole job lives in one part: the wiper motor and its linkage frame, bolted across the cowl. This is the complete 12V assembly (113-989-955) — motor plus the full linkage rack — so you replace the entire tired mechanism in one shot instead of chasing a seized motor, worn bushings, and stretched linkage separately.

Features

  • Complete unit: 12V motor + full linkage assembly, ready to drop in
  • Direct replacement for 1973–1977 standard Beetles
  • Shaft spacing matches all 1958–1977 Beetles (15¾" between shafts)
  • Replaces OE 113-955-113 / interchange 8198200100

Fitment

  • Confirmed: Standard VW Beetle 1967–1977; Super Beetle 1971–1972 (12-volt)
  • Fits with modification: 1958–1966 Beetle after 12V conversion — cowl holes must be enlarged for the larger late-model shafts (grommets required), and earlier cars need 1973–77 wiper arms.
  • Does NOT fit: 1973–1979 Super Beetle (curved-screen); 6-volt cars without conversion.
  • Verify before ordering: ships loose / not pre-set in park position; push-on connectors may require a matching female connector on your harness.
