The rear wiper motor on wifes Civic is shot, am wondering if there are any places that might sell this as Honda want around 120+VAT which to me seems like an exorbitant amount of money for something with plastic cogs in. Have rung round a few local places and have found nadda so was wondering if anybody here can offer some advice.

Same as a Rover 400 shape?

Does the wiper spindle/spline come through the glass?

I know a couple of breakers that might have this - in Slough / N London.

Do you need help fitting it?

No idea if it's the same, the spline come through the metal and not the glass, I'll try and find a pic of it and post back as the wifes taken the car right now.

There are loads of this shape.

try ebay as there is always that shape civics breaking.

a more common model is the 1.8vti known as mb6. im sure the rear wiper motor will be the same.

if you go onto classfieds then parts---> there is a mb6 breaking.
