Default 3 DSE wiper kits for Camaro?

So why is there a different kit for 67,68 and 69 Camaro? Figured they would all be the same

67 has a different mountint pad on the fire than 68-69. I think the only difference in 68 and 69 as far as the kits go is the headlight knobs that come with them. more interesting the the 69 Firebird also carries a specific part number as well.

Not saying your wrong about the mount because I only have a 68 in front of me, but could you verify that for me? I have access to a DSE 67 kit and don't understand the reason for 3 different motors unless it is due to the wiring. Some 67's have three wire and others have four. I can get this one at a really good deal and would love to be able to snatch it up

Guess the real question is, can the 67 kit be used on a 68.

The hole in the firewall on a 67 is a different shape than 68-9

Okay. The hole is different but is the bolt pattern the same. With a DSE kit the plate just bolts up and the face of the motor makes no difference because the actual motor they use is the same for all

With a hammer, a drill and band aides everything is possible.

But seriously, is the motor kit new? You can see if you can exchange it for the proper unit.
