Title: 2001 Cobra Convertible wiper delete
Post by: Sally on October 01, 2017, 06:20:27 pm

Hi recently purchased a 2001 Cobra and the wiper delete plug is broken anyone know where I can get a new one? 
Not having much luck not even sure if that is what they call them.
 I am sure to have many more questions about this car.
 Also what do people think of the halo headlights?

Thanks. Sally

Hi Sally, and welcome to 01/02 Cobra ownership!!
Can you get a photo of the wiper delete plug you're referring to - is this the little rubber bung that covers the original hole in the plastic wiper panel at the bottom of the windscreen between the screen and the bonnet?
what halo headlights are you referring to? The spotlights Ford Australia put into the front bumper, or something else?

Here is the part you need with TICKFORD part number. Be lucky to find one. Check electrical shops or Clark Rubber stores or cut a round piece of black plastic and glue.

Seriously - a Cobra specific part?

Surely there was something already available in the Ford Australia parts book? I guess not...

Thank you for that I have emailed Tickford and hope to get a reply from them soon, if they don’t have them maybe they know who would.

Thanks. Sally
