Hand operated windscreen wiper

[Velorum]

Anyone know where I can buy a hand operated windscreen wiper?- the type that has a handle on the shaft where the motor would usually be. Whilst looking on the web a couple of months ago I spotted one for £32 on a site called 'marinestore.co.uk' - I book marked it but now it shows up as 'unknown'. I have done another google search but this hasnt turned up anything!

Marinestore's web site has been down for a while now (at least 2 weeks). Anyone know if they have gone out of business?

The only other place I have seen these sold is on the West Marine's web site.

Thanks for that guys. If I cant locate one then I guess that I could try and adapt the original electric one by removing the motor and rigging a handle setup to the shaft.

This kind of thing used to be fitted to army landrovers. I'd guess there must be a supplier for these: might be cheaper than a "marine" source.

Ah! Never thought of that! I'll do a google search.
Thanks!
