Graham Baggaley Posted October 17, 2021 Report Share Posted October 17, 2021 Hi all. has anyone got a tip for installation of the three anti vibration mounting rubbers that the wiper motor sits on. I tried popping them in hot water first but still no joy. This is for my 3a. thanks all Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Icarus60 Posted October 17, 2021 Report Share Posted October 17, 2021 I cut mine with a sharp knife with a single vertical cut top to bottom. They are then very easy to install onto the mounting plate and it makes little or no difference to the isolation characteristics of the motor once installed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Graham Baggaley Posted October 19, 2021 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2021 Thanks all. Will have a go with lube before resorting to cutting. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
