I have made my own single wiper by following this guide http://www.jekylhyderacing.com/wiper.htm and since changed and fitted a Storm kit which I have just transferred from my rev1 to the rev3.
What problems are you having ?

There is a circlip on the spindle which holds it in to the triangle which you need to force off IIRC

I made a mistake to be honest I bought the storm kit as I wanted to change the park position so the wiper parks in the middle of the screen then realised that its done by moving the position the linkage fits on the motor Doh so to be honest I would have kept the diy kit but I had already let someone else have it.
