An interesting windshield wiper question for owners of '98-'02 Camaros
This is an interesting overall-question I need answered for my 4th gen history site with some small questions I want answered. I want your answer to these questions below if you own a '98-'02 Camaro.
If you haven't owned your car for at least around 10 years, you probably don't need to answer or even continue reading. I'm only interested in answers from people who know for a fact their car had the original wipers on it when they bought it.
1. What year is your car?
2. Are you the original owner of your car (did you purchase it brand new)?
3. What year did you purchase it and with how many miles?
4. Are the original windshield wipers still on the car? Or a 100% accurate OEM replacement?
5. If yes, describe what they were made of, or what brand they were/are.
Why am I asking this? Because I'm curious to find out if metal Bosch wipers were factory throughout the '98-'02 model years. An AC Delco part number exists, but to my knowledge, plastic AC Delco wipers weren't used '98-'02. Let's see if a few people prove me wrong.

I was the original owner. Bought it new.
I bought it 12/99 w/ ~65 mi.
The wipers were replace almost annually. Usually Anco.

lol ZeeSnuttS, that isn't a helpful answer. I know they were black, but were they plastic or metal?
Maybe I should have said in my first post that the big questions I'm trying to answer are...
1) Did '98-'02 Camaros EVER come with plastic windshield wipers?
2) If so, what year did GM start using Bosch metal ones?
