Hi,
I have a sprite Mk II, and put in a later dual line brake system. I placed
the new master cyls so that the pedals would be in the same position as the
old pedals were. But in order to do that, I had to take out the wiper
motor. Because the new master cyls are wider than the old ones, the wiper
motor can't mount where it used to. I see no way to put it back in that
area because the brake lines are there. I recall looking at a later sprite
and the wiper motor was placed in a different place, up by the left front
wheel.
So what do I need to do to get working windshield wipers? I found a motor
off of a later car, and could get a bracket to mount it near the front
wheel somewhere. But I'd still need to get a longer wire and tube to run
to the wipers. Is this the way to go? And does anybody know what tube and
wire to get to run to the wipers? I'm not sure what to even ask for, since
later cars had 3 windshield wipers, and mine has two. And does anybody
have a good way to describe the best place to mount the motor?
Any help would be appreciated. I've been thinking about this for a long
time, and don't quite know what to do and what parts to get.
Thanks,
Ric Otte
