I managed to get the drivers in place, but I had to trim the inner lip of the roof seam to do so. the hole in the roof got a bit bigger in the process. The issue was I could not get it to fit in the passenger side. I was willing to make a little curved box in the valance to accommodate the wiper transmission, but when I crunched the numbers for the motors I elected to go another route. I also had a cable operated system installed but found it noisy.
I ended up using a Dodge wiper motor out of stock I had laying around. I mounted it to the valance and it is hidden by an overhead console. The arm on the back of the motor is very short. I used parcel van wiper components for the wiper arms and wiper pivots. There are pictures on the Carryall page.....but you need to be a subscriber to view.
