Gentlemen,

I'd like to warn you about a little problem that I encountered while doing this mod...

If you find a rear wipe electric motor that has torx screws on the cover plate... just give up and go home.

As you can see in the screenshot attached, there are no other slots/holes where you can mount the long arm. I stared at the thing for about 15 minutes to try and figure out a way of still doing the mod somehow... the only way I could think of was to "rotate" the shiny metal circle on the white wheel, but even the holes where that metal circle are fixed are assymetric... it's only meant to be assemble one way...

Very disappointed, I reassembled everything as it was...

If only I visited the second page earlier... Seems that European Yaris uses this Bosch motor and can't be modded. Maybe if we ordered an american wipe motor it'd work?
