[T3] Wipers

[Max Welton]

When I did this on my old 63 bug, I was able to change the park position by reindexing the arm on the splined output shaft of the wiper transmission. I assume that trick should also on a type-3. 

So If I wanted to consider the 71+ assemblies the question becomes: did the hole-to-hole cowl spacing change after 70?

You need to find a donor '70 Type 3. That's the first year for the 
tapered shafts and the last year for wipers that park on that side. 
All the later years are also tapered, but they park on the other 
side, so the mechanism won't fit the earlier years.
