NEW VW PASSAT B6 3C ESTATE TAILGATE BOOT REAR WIPER MOTOR 1K6955711 2005-2010

Pretty cheap quality plastic let down by poor design
Fitted, found the end sprayer nozzle was fitted/manufactured incorrectly (and not like OEM - which is kind of 'barbed' and inserts positively in to the little copper/brass tube creating a seal to stop water going back into the unit), this fell off when fitted.
Tried to reinsert the sprayer end, but due to the 'non barbed' design of the sprayer nozzle it soaked the electronics of the motor.
Plastic clips (and I assume plastic in general) are very brittle, at compared to OEM. I discovered this when drying out the electronics with an air-line to at least get the wiper bit working.
The OEM motor appears to have decent plastic clips, which can be assembled/reassembled if needed.
It's fitted now, but overall not a great experience.
