The Superspec kit came with a Sierra wiper motor with a cut down and welded linkage to give it the correct sweep. It needed to be fitted with brackets mounted to the underside of the scuttle with bolts hopefully hidden by the base of the windscreen.

 

Many people found it easier to fit an old Mini wiper motor (or a new Lucas 16W or 14W unit) which drives with a flexible cable and wheel boxes. It gives more fixing options and you can get different gear wheels to alter the wiper sweep. Parts are easily available from CBS and also SVC and Auto Electrical Spares.

 

You can easily tell which motor you have by looking behind the dash. The Sierra motor and mechanism takes all the space behind the instruments whereas the Mini motor is small and usually mounted to one side or the other driving through the cable.
