Rear Window wiper

First time I've seen this on a GT. Looks like it was nicely done. Does anyone recognize this car? Opel:eBay Motors (item 230389677077 end time Oct-25-09 07:09:09 PDT)

That caught my eye while on eBay today as well. I can't recall ever seeing a rear window wiper either. Just when you thought there couldn't be a mod that hadn't been discussed here before...

Looks like the wiper arm is from an Opel. I wonder what the motor is from.

Notice that the same car has an overhead center console. What's that from? Looks like it fits nicely and has a light in a good spot.

The motor can be from most anywhere, especially a vehicle with a rear wiper where the travel is limited.
I have asked the seller about the overhead console, and according to him, the console was bought at OGTS.
