If you mean the piece extending thru the cowl, I don't recall hearing of anyone trying. I think it might be easier said than done since everything is so integrated with cable lengths and exit angles..

I am thinking the size of that serrated piece the arm fits onto might be smaller than newer or current arms though. Wonder if there is a possibility of getting a modern serrated piece from the junkyard & having it reworked or having a sleeve or similar machined to fit the Packard diameter on the inside and the different arm diameter on the outside. If so that might be an option if a solid attachment method could be ensured. Are the modern arms short enough would be another question. Most windshields today are so much bigger.
