N3565 COVER/MODULE, WINDSHIELD WIPER REPLACE
PART#: 12463039

Notorious for poor quality. You might be able to find one on ebay for around $25. Otherwise GM dealer charges $140 to replace it.

Advance and Autozone both show part on their websites for around $30 (+ tax & shipping)

Most parts stores are carrying them now too. I see them on the "HELP" rack locally.

Read the mod page for ideas on installation.

Yup, just pull out the old one and pop in the new one.

If you can find a place to buy them in bulk, it'll be worth it in the long run to keep a box full in the garage. In my experience they last about eight months.
