DSE Selecta-Speed Wiper Kit - Non-Recessed Park (1968 Chevrolet Chevelle / Malibu / El Camino) - 121612
Give your 1968 Chevrolet A-Body the control and convenience of a modern windshield wiper system with the Detroit Speed 121612 Selecta-Speed Wiper Kit. Designed specifically for 1968 Chevrolet Chevelle, Malibu and El Camino models with non-recessed park wipers, this system upgrades the original wiper operation with seven speeds, including five intermittent delay settings plus dedicated low and high speeds. Whether you are caught in a light mist or steady rain, Selecta-Speed gives you considerably more control over wiper operation while maintaining a clean installation in your classic.
Detroit Speed engineered the 121612 around a compact modern OE-style wiper motor that helps create additional clearance around the brake booster, valve covers and other underhood components. A CNC-machined aluminum adapter mounts the motor to the stock firewall bolt pattern, while the complete wiring harness connects the system to the under-dash wiper control module. The motor connector comes pre-installed on the harness, eliminating the need to pin the connector during installation. A seven-position rotary switch with knob controls the wipers and incorporates push-button windshield washer functionality for use with an optional inline electric washer pump.
