    You undo the 4 M6/10mm head bolts and pop the rest of the mechanism off at the ball joint? Use a sawzall to the cut the car up?

    What exactly do you need help with?

    We are talking corolla/sprinter here right? The front one?

    I recently re-installed the wiper motor and mechanism on my AE86, on the arm that is connected to the wiper motor there is a small metal tab just off the ball joint housing (ball joint housing is underneath the rubber boot). This tab can be used to anchor the arm on the edge of the round hole when popping the ball back into it's housing as it is difficult to provide resistance to the rear of the arm (very confined space behind it), it could also be used in anchoring the arm when popping the ball out.
