Default Wiper motor?

I need a nice wiper motor for a firstgen Camaro. The stock one is just too ugly.
It has to fit in the stock location and mounting.

So far, all I've found is DSE's. It would look OK under the hood, but not real happy with the billet knob, would rather have something that would accept the stock knob.

What have you guys done (besides relocating it) to get that eyesore off your firewall?

that's about all I've seen. I know I painted the inside circle of the knob black on mine to look more like stock. I'm pretty sure I could have figured out how to get the stock knob on their switch with some mods, it just wasn't that big a deal to me after I painted it, it blended in.

what about just a box to cover the wiper motor that matches the firewall? I am not sure about clearance though if someone did build something like that.

The DSE motor looks 10x better than the stock ones.
