Wiper and Turn Signal Stalk

Does anyone know where I can order an extra wiper stalk, and turn signal stalk? I am probably going to be sending mine off to be painted and need extras to use while mine are being worked on.


Also, does anyone know how to remove the old ones?

Yes, there seemed to be quite a few floating around various vendors because of alarm upgrades. Good luck finding the other one though.

Does anyone know if there is a difference between the 04 and 05?

I have an 05 stalk if you want it. Mint condition, was on the car for about 5K miles. PM me if you want it and I'll send you a pic, $$$ negotiable.

Which one do you have? Right now I am really looking for the turn signal stalk as I do not think I am going to have problems finding the windshield wiper stalk.

What are you going to do about the printed on graphics on the stalks? I know I never actually look at them to see which way to push/pull/turn, but it would be a shame to loose that aspect of the OEM look.

Can you tell I thought about painting mine too? Good luck, and post pics when you're done!

Very simple - just remove the tach (two torx screws) and the cover piece. Each stalk is held on with one screw and one small connector.
Curious as to what the end result will look like!

I am planning on getting a custom design of some sort airbrushed on. I haven't come up with a full design yet, but we shall see . I will, of course, post pictures when it is all done.

That's some detailed airbrush work... those icons are tiny. Good luck and I can't wait to see the end result.
