Take off windshiled wiper arm from outside Take off grey hatch cover from inside I think 3 bolts to remove wiper motor I used a metal plug from Lowes, found in the specialty drawers by the nuts and bolts. I think it was 1 1/4" size, can't remember for sure right now. It fit perfectly, so I painted it black and sealed the inside edges with silicon to prevent leaks.
