Just bought a wiper motor off a 2003 Boxster to see how interchangeable they are with ours. Modern speed wipers is on my list of things to make the 914 wife-worthy.

Pictures and thoughts once the part arrives later this week.

*Looked a Boxster seat belts as well. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif)

Thanks a lot Mark for taking the time to document this,Iam sure I have seen a similar motor on a VW Golf,would do the boxster motor one but parts are a bit thin on the ground in my country for these.

Awesome. Mine move about 90% slower than those. They need a full cleaning/refurb so might as well do this too. Thanks for the tutorial.

Exactly,mine works ok but are still rather slow,no getting over that and I cant be bothered making a slow wiper motor a little faster by cleaning it,can't believe my luck trawled our countries biggest auction site and scored a boxster wiper assembly for a very fair price...
Mark coming thru again with great info ,I real asset to this forum,top marks he he.

I haven't picked mine up from the postal depot as yet,seller wouldn't separate the motor from the drive but only charged for motor and free shipping,got me thinking if I could use most or all of the drive,would certainly be better than 40yr old parts.

Just did this swap on my -70, used a VW-"mostvehicles"-type motor, looks just the same as the Boxter-motor in this post. New motor, bought it online here in Norway for about 60$ (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
