    Default removing firewall an mounting wiper moter

    Hi I'm thinking of removing my firewall an left with the wiper moter problem. Im sure I read or seen something that you can drill a hole an mount a moter behind the glove box? Was it a nova moter used an was it the same linkage used or diffrent

    I believe it is a Nova one used behind the glovebox. I think this is only worth pursuing if you want to keep two wipers, the Citroen mechanisms are the way forward if you're happy with a single wiper.

    You use the whole mechanism, bolt a Nova motor to it, and mount it on the scuttle somehow. Arm can be anything.

    I'm with you on that! Not even thought about it for mine yet but i want to keep 2 wipers and move the motor. Its a pretty simple linkage set up so can be modified easily. I'll probably do a custom alli linkage with Igus style plastic rod ends.
