I built a simple solid-state voltage regulator from Radio Shack
parts to run the 6V wiper in my Beetle after the conversion to 12V.
The ideal way to handle the wiper motor, I think, is to get a
factory 12V replacement from a slightly newer model (in applications where
the newer unit will just bolt up).
