No pics but i'm sure they were, bought them new from V tuning years ago. Swapped them for turbo ones the other week to try and get a less spongy pedal.Quote:

Mine weren't too bad until I fitted the rear disks and then I think it became too much for the Nova master cylinder to cope with.
So after finding out that Chris 16v had fitted a Ford wiper unit (in a bodged way) I decided I wanted to try fit some sort of better single wiper conversion, so I went for the AX bracket and linkage.
This is, or can be a straight swap as the motor’s are the same on nova’s, but as I mentioned mine now had a ford motor/wiring mounted to a ford bracket, so this meant I was left wondering how to get round it, so I thought I would use the ford motor in the AX bracket, but meaning I have had to extend the wiring.

Left it all trial fitted and packed up as was getting dark, choped the plug off and headed in doors to extend the wires.
