Sebastiano,

The motor works by vacuum.  On the standard 29 the line runs down to the dash where there is a valve used to turn on/off the vacuum.    The line then runs from the valve to the intake manifold..  As far as the touring car is concerned I will have to check my pictures I might have snapped one of a 29 touring car at the last POC meet in Maryland.  The picture might show the way the wiper assembly mounts and how the line is run.

If the motor you have is for the 29 Plymouth, it appears that the on/off switch is part of the motor assembly ??  Is this correct ???  I also didn't see any mounting hardware ???

Chet?
