My wiper motor expired on Friday just as I was taking the car for MOT. When I stripped it down to replace the motor and mechanism I noticed the foam that covers the air inlets was perforated and probably a contributing factor to the motors demise.

So, where do you get replacement foam from?

Be careful if you take the side trims off I`ve just done mine and its been a nightmare trying to seal the rubber trim again where it goes from the side trim to over the top of the door opening , I`m sure you could get the bottom trim off the windscreen without removing the side trims as its pretty flexible if you start in the middle and pop the fixings out ? thats what I`ll do in future, then hopefully the sponge filter will see me out.
