uhhggg,  as I hold the newly aquired mazda GLC wiper motor to the 521 bracket, saying "I think this shit will work"...  look up.  aw  SHIT!...  Tryin' to Michael Jackson moonwalk out the way, not fast enough... 

 

 

Just FYI.  thats some hippie hipster wannabe version of what might, "could," be me.... 

 

 

Found out that the GLC miper motor does have the same plug as the 521... SWEET! just swap some plug connectors around and away you go...  but, not for me, i have that stupid intermittent delay switch...   So, instead of rewiring that motor.  I went back to the junk yard and found me a ford wiper motor that would bolt to the 521 bracket. 

 

GLC plug. just take off the ground plug and it will slid into the datto

But, before that was this.  making the GLC motor fit... arm vs arm

grind off back of stud to put on new arm.  I put it on socket to punch out the old arm.

anyways, it works as a upgrade, but not for me... Its now a bolt in/plugin ready upgrade...   Hopefully I can unload this on Jon or Hans...

 

Oh snap!!! Japans 007... wiper motor...

ITS ALIVE!  the wipers work.  woot woot.

 

 

Cool upgrades !!! :)

 

The longer arm on the wiper motor will cause your wiper arms to swing further than normal.  You may end up having to shorten the arm a bit.  

 

You are correct sir!

 

I was hopping it would, because theres about 2 inches the wipers dont reach.  and would make them go a little faster.  But, I didnt relize that the small amount would make them wipe under the windshield almost to the cowl and past the piller...  I did have to shorten it...

 

 

new motor fits nicely.

What`s with the camera guy ,, dude thinks he`s Don fucking Pardo or something.

 

 

 

 

So the Mazda GLC motor is almost a bolt in with stock wiper wiring  ? Or does it take lots of mounting bracket work ?

 

Could you do a more detailed write-up on wiring and installing that without the delayed Ford switch?

Im kinda working on it.  Was going to use Jons truck for that, but he wants my setup now and same with Hans.  So, I need another truck to bolt it into for a comparison.

 

 I did finally get to use my wipers friday, it spinkled. although with the longest delay setting it was just wiping a couple drops away that would probably just evaporated.  But, I used it and felt like that dude from a Flash of Genius... kinda.

 

anyways.

 

picked this shit up today.  whats this stuff for??
