    broken housing on firewall - 85 CV



    I have a broken housing.. box...thingy, whatever you call the plastic thing that the wiper motor is mounted on.

    1. What's involved in replacing this?

    2. What year/models can I snag a replacement from?

    climate control car, if that matters.

      It was broken and then "repaired" with some sort of adhesive before I bought it, and I'm guessing has ripped itself further with the torque of the wiper motor.


      Good to know about the transmissions. I'm guessing that means taking pretty much everything I can including the motor and wipers off a known-good car is the way to go if I can find it then?

        Weird, mine is busted in the same place. Not as open as that one, but it's cracked pretty good.
