Hello Jani, I just have seen that you converted your car from RHD to LHD, I am doing the same. Do you have a pictore how your wiper motor is installed now?
Thanks, Lutz

Hi Lutz,
I´m not sure that I have, but I can try to take one. Basically it is just mounted upside down. Only LHD part that you need is the wiper arm. After that it is just mirroring the monting holes for the wiper mechanism and flipping the motor to the left side. No need to alter the wiring at all. It was scary initially, but quite easy at the end. I´ll try to take a photo tonight.
If you have any other questions, I am happy to help.

Giorgo,
hope you are well in Italy, terrible what is happening all over and specially in your country. For me the only positive thing is that my garage is the best quarantine zone, because I am alone there, and found some time to work again on my car. So I have some questions you might help.
Can you send me a pic how the outboard pivotpin of the headlight pods looks like?
And, do you know if the fuel tanks are connected directly with a thin breather hose? I dont remember how it was made on my car, this transparent tube was broken in thousand part because of the glue and the time. One the left hand side there was a one direction valve in the tube....
Is your car LHD or RHD. I converted min from RHD to LHD, I i am wondering how the wiper motor is installed in a LHD car, do you hav informations?
thanks Lutz....

Hello Lutz thanks for your message. To answer your questions:
the pivot pin on my car, late S2.2 is different from your S2, mine is the sane as the S3 model
breather pipes connect the fuel tanks and are routed all around the rear bulkhead glass under the carpet, there are also a Non return valves on lh side of the fuel tanks pipes fixed in vertical position on the metal plate riveted on the tailgate aperture.
my car is RHD and has the wiper motor on the RH wheel arch under the dashboard, your LHD must be in the same position but on the lh side
hope this help
best wishes
Giorgio
