yeah to do the mod, you need to just unclip the cover (which i believe you have done?) then a 10mm socket will do the job. BAM! done... well then the motor needs to be ripped apart. if you're looking at the fit freak forum diy, it doesnt really explain the plastic pin thing. but its the circular thing in the other...circle thing.HA! probably just made it more confusing for you but yeah . GOOD LUCK with the mod. i reckon it looks quite stylish (Y)

well first try i didnt break the plastic thing.. i just swapped the metal thing and i started it from vertical and went back to horizontal finish.
second try i did something different.. still didnt break the plastic but switched something around and the wiper wouldnt stop moving even if on or off lol
third try found out what plastic bit to break and worked like a charm.

wow nice spoon spoiler ;)
how much? where from?

Its a spoon replica one (apparently made from the same mold as the spoon duckbill), i bought it from some guy called KenKen on the AusJazz forums.
He says he runs a business called AutoWorkshop or something, he has some other cool things too ie mugen CF spoilers n such...

Anyway it arrived today still have to unwrap it tho, i got as far as taking it out of the box then had to go to work.
but ill take the bubble wrap off and post a pic when i can.
