<div>The "how to" has been explained. The "why it is so difficult" is another
story. More than 55 years ago when our BN2 was just approaching the grand old
age of 10, the wiper motor, when energized, was banging around behind the
dashboard. The rubber bushes were in need of replacement. Was able, after a
long wait, to obtain replacements from a BMC dealer. As I recall the
replacements were so soft and supple that they just pushed into place with my
fingers. Not the case when parts started to be reproduced for or by venders of
the 1970s- and later. With harder rubber compounds and the task was much more
tedious. </div>
