Be aware that there are two types of wiper motors for a bay window kombi. One sets the wipers over the left hand side of the car and one more over the right hand side of the car. You will find each side will sit with the furtherst out wiper over the blinker. i.e. if left, one wiper will sit over the left hand side blinker.
The easiest way to tell is that the wipers themselves will either sit left of the water squirter thing or right of it.
I only know this because i am chaning the front end panel on my bay and relaise d the new panel was opposite thus needing new wiper motor.
On top of all this i may be able to help you out as i have a few lying around but in another suburb so won't be able to find out for a while.

Maybe you can get lucky and get the same motor from the opposite side vehicle. I pulled the complete reverse unit with the intention of just chaning the motor over. Guess what? Different motors and one has completely round spline on the shaft and the other has a funny flat spot in it to lock the arm on. Not the wiper arm but the actually part that spins. So both had different motors and different set up to hold the actual mechanism that turns it.
My advice post a pic of your and try and get one that mounts the same way.
By the way both mount using the same central pivot point under the dash.

wooohooooo today i got my wiper motor tested and turns out it actually works, it wasnt the motor it was the plug which plugs into the paddles, although i was positive that it was on, well yes it was on but the brass tongues were not lined up properly so i have gone to alot of trouble to just come to this conclusion. but its great cause now i have wipers woooohooooooo!!!!
yeah i just wanted to thank those that helped me in the right direction esp (type1, lobus, jnr356 and karmen) thanks guys for helping me find a motor, at least now when the motor does actually kark it i will know who to ask! oh yeah i also wanted to apologise to jnr356 and lobus for going to all that trouble of gettingme a motor, i was about to pick the motor up from jnr356 but got my orginal one tested first and well guess what it worked so i no longer need the spare one which lobus gave to jnr356 for me. thanks heaps David and mark for you help and assistance
cheers

no worries
anybody want a wiper motor?
just kidding dave,i'll bring it to the jambo
yeah i had a hunch but i didnt think it would be that easy to fix (fiddle with the plugs more)!!, oh well i did it the hard way, but still now i know how to remove it when it actually buggers up, too easy!!
thanks again Mark and Dave will see you at the jamba!!
