A great time to remove it, and put the 944 part (metal) plug in! This improves the butt dyno by about 5 HP!

Quick fix (less than 30 minutes). You could always remove the entire unit and get the Porsche plug set and drive rear wiperless.

We should not be driving these legends in the rain, anyways! They deserve better. Who needs stinking wipers.

Anyone else have one? Broke mine trying to adapt a non-factory wiper blade............ And yes, I use mine on the C4S. 10K miles this winter running around the Sierras to ski/board just ended last weekend.

Well I know I don't have one on blackie, Ken. Let me see if I can find the one that was removed. Once found, it's yours. I'd like to see it on a car than needs and uses it the way it was designed.
