Install Headlight Wipers??

1995 E320 wagon. It did not come with headlight wipers from the factory. Is it possible to add wipers? How expensive would this be? I don't even care if they are functional. I see panels under the lights that appear to be removable.

If you don't care if they're functional, just buy some headlight wiper arms and glue 'em on.

Seriously, to install wipers, you'll need all the hardware, the relays, the pump and hoses for the water spray and the switch to activate it all. And, that's assuming that you don't need to update your headlights (glass lense shape and position) for it to work.

Not sure why you want to do this, but if you can procure a set or wiper arms from a parted-out W124, you could weld (or epoxy) a bolt shaft to the end of the wiper shaft and get locknuts for the other bolt ends.

Drill a hole of the same size to the panels beneath the headlights and insert the wiper shaft bolt ends into each hole. Tighten on other side with locknuts.

You have now added another degree of difficulty to headlight removal!
