One wiper fluid motor to two.
I had always hated the dribble of fluid I got from my wiper fluid jets when I was attempting to clean the windshield. Today I moved the brake booster to get the wiper fluid tank out and clean it. While I had it out I decided to modify it with a stronger motor. That led to installing two motors. Here is how it all looked after I drilled the second hole, enlarged the original, added the grommets and installed the twin motors.

Yeah the tubes will be 'T'ed together. I toyed with the idea of one pump per wiper blade but I didn't want to run the extra tube up through the trough.
The wiring is unfinished as that was the test wiring. The real wiring will be properly wrapped and loomed.

Hey, anything has to be better than the stock pump that keeps burning up on me.
I'm wondering what's going to happen when you fire those off...you might get an interesting stream location due to the high pressure.

Well, I thought of that, since the nozzle are designed to just disperse the fluid in no sort of focused way I'm going to create or adapt a jet method used on many other cars and maybe get away from the in-wiper tubing.
If not, you're right, it should be fun.

When I do my interior I'm going to pull apart the wiper switch and (attempt) to modify it so that when you push the water button, the wipers don't come on straight away. That really pisses me off when it takes a second or 2 for the water to make an appearance, meanwhile your wipers have done several laps of a dry, dusty windscreen
