Heat shrunk the connectors:

Took the Vcc and GND from the headlight switch. Snaked the wire through the center console and soldered the wires. DONE!

But the whole install didnt really go smoothly. First i dropped the wiper nut in the motor and cant find it for the life of me. But its not a standard size, its a M10 thread but a 15mm wrench. I only found M10 with a 17mm wrench, its all fine and functional but the plastic nut cap doesnt fit. So ill have to order that. Also while cleaning the dirt on the window sides ive messed up the rubber covers. They've deteriorated from the sun in the same way the cowl did. So that also another thing to change. These things :
Left apron cover 51718232633 Right apron cover 51718232634.
The prices from my local dealer :
51 71 8 232 633 apron cover 55.18kn
51 71 8 232 634 apron cover 59.28kn
51 71 8 177 846 KOPČA 9.48kn
61 61 3 428 077 Nut 7.75kn
Not the end of the world.
