Just wondering if anyone has ever replaced the wiper motor with another (non VW/Porsche).

It kind of works in my mind if we were to find out how to mount it.

I bought a small one from West Marine, used for boats and use it on my race car. Works great up to 100MPH or so.

Why do you want a non-OEM unit. There has to be lots of OEM units available. No problem mounting them.

And exactly how would this be considered an "UPDATE"? The Cap'n

In my case, weight. The marine wiper weighed 4oz. I think a stock setup is heavier. Other than that the stock ones work pretty well.
