Re: What-Ho & the JOURNEY so far

At the front it connects to the reaction plate bolt holes, so was nicely out of the way when working. Hope all goes well with the paint project your end...

The problem I have is that the loom is wired for a (and do forgive me if I am wrong) square DL3 wiper motor but the wipe...
