LC120 wiper linkage

Hi all.
Anybody replaced the wiper linkage on a 120. I’ve ordered the replacement linkage but just wondering what sort of a job it was. In my experience they are either a piece of cake or an absolute nightmare.

Not replaced, but have had it out and ‘fixed’ it by creating a new bushing. Hardest part of the job was removal of the wiper blade holders from the splines, but once they were off it’s a simple task to remove the plastic covers and once removed there’s plenty of room to work and remove the linkage and motor.

Many thanks
I’ll have a go when it stops raining lol

They are pretty hard to catch on the move
