youve got to mess about with the rods on the ax moter a little bit and then attatch them to the saxo moter! took me about 45mins as i didnt know what i was doing but i got there in the end so for someone that knows about things like this id say its a 10 min job max

i love the look of the single wiper, remember on mine it was quite easy to fit but that was a proper kit

STEP 1 - lift the bonnet , undo the wiper nutts remove wiper arms persuading them off if necessary
STEP 2 - undo the to nutts one at either side and remove the plastic scuttle
STEP 3 - undo the 3 retaining nutts and remove the wiper moter cover
STEP 4 - unscrew the wiper moters multi-plug
STEP 5 - unscrew the three remaining bolts and lift out the hole unit

STEP 6 - undo the moter to linkage nutt

you wont be needing these after!
STEP 8 - take the ax moter linkage arms off the moter
(sorry dont have a picture)
STEP 9 - now fit the ax linkage arms to the saxo moter! this part is quite tricky so take your time! the longest arm on the linkage from the ax needs to be turned around for a straight fit otherwise the mechanisam will rub!
also remember that the linkage arms need to sit downwards not sitting upwards as they will hit the top of the scuttle pannel!
STEP 10 - tighten up all nutts and put everything back together on the scuttle ,
once this is done you can refit the wiper arm, you dont need a new one but a straight strom wiper arm looks alot better than a saxo wiper arm! or one from a c15 van
hope this helps guys:D
