Wiper Motor Wobbling Around
Discussion
As per title really ... I assume it shouldn't be doing that? 
If I grab my wipers, I can swing them through about 30 degrees of movement. They both do it in unison, and if I hold 1 wiper still, the other one will not move. So I took the removable slam panel off and gave the wipers a wiggle ... it seems the movement is coming because the motor is twisting in it's bracket.
This is my first TVR, so not sure if this is a "they all do that sir" type of moment.
There seems to be only 1 bracket across the lower half of the motor with no other fixings holding it in place. Is that correct?
My instinct is to try tightening the bracket to see if that stops the movement, but thought it best to check to see if there should be a second bracket somewhere before I go over tightening anything!
Thanks in advance for any help ... and I apologise for spamming the forum with threads tonight. I'm trying to bottom out some niggles with the new car, and find it easier to address each issue separately.
