Headlight wiper oddities ... and changing the foglights

So after returning from my road trip slightly deaf from missing my muffler for about 750 miles of the total 1500, I really *drove* a 9000 for the first time (not including test drives) -- my mom's new-to-her '95 9000CS LPT. Wow, compared to my N/A 900, the thing moves. The breaks are great, it's so quiet and smooth and ... I'm impressed. The steering is much lighter, but still precise.
I have a peculiar problem, though, with the passenger side headlight wiper. It seems like about every time I park the car and get out, I notice that the wiper is in some random position that is distinctly NOT parked nicely at the bottom -- such as straight upwards, all the way around, 45 degrees from the horizontal, and so on. This is even without having sprayed the windshield (or used the wipers at all), which I thought was what triggered the headlight wipers. Anyone have any ideas on this?
ALSO, the passenger side fog light is out -- how do I get at the bulb to change it?
TIA,
Tim B.
