Just a quick feedback tale, having wrestled the front scuttle off, changing a chip to a crack in the process (new screen on order), i got into the wiper bits, the motor and most of the mechanism is all ok except one piece. The wiper and gearbox drives an arm round and round, this arm has 2 ball sections on it which drive the 2 arms to the individual wiper assemblies, this ball section drive piece which was showing the first signs of seizing solid, generous oil and grease has been applied and is now all ok.
