Hi, everyone.  I have a 1998 MK1 MGF. I am suffering with dreaded wiper motor fatigue. I know and have read all about the removal and replacement of it on here, also the stripping down of the motor to replace the rusty bearing. All very useful and in my case 85% successful. What I am after is a source from the wide world of a replacement aftermarket wiper motor, not £100 plus job, just a good quality motor. I know people have said get a Freelander MK1 motor it is the same but I still haven't got anywhere because I don't have a part number or a model number for the motor. They just ask for a VIN number and then say its not listed against their motor. Apparently there is also some sort of query about the switching arrangement on the motors offered. I just want to be able to reconnect if possible. Please can anyone help me out?? Thanks in anticipation.

Hi, I am a newby to The-T-Bar and would like to know from anyone out there about their experiences with replacing the MGF wiper motor with one from a Mk1 Freelander. I have found that there is quite a conflict of results from different sources and before going down this avenue I wanted to be sure of the facts as so many of the blogs are dated some 12 years ago or more! It would seem that it is now impossible to source a genuine MGF wiper motor and my findings with the small amount of information I have managed to gather like "TRICO" and "Lucas" and DLB000270 or DLB101532 have just lead me up a blind alley. So any help please would be very gratefully received, thank you in advance.
