Thanks! I wished I had run across this earlier. The first thing I did when I decided to attempt using a rear wiper motor was to grab one out a late model Trailblazer. Unfortunately, it has a 180 degree sweep and it apparently uses electronics from the T. B. BCM (body control module) to reverse the direction of the motor....which I didn't have. Here's the link to this guys YouTube.

Looks like a pretty straight forward mod and the sweep looks just about right. I'll be grabbing a fresh one when the time comes. Brand new on Ebay $40.
