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.

I got a storm single wiper atm so doesn't really matter what moter I use. Is it a Citroen ax moter an arm I need

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

Can you not leave the right side of the fire wall on with the motor mounted on the section you leave, I seen this before

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.
