Does it make the wipers more effective? No.
Are they great in the first place...no.
If I lived in seattle and drove in the rain constantly, would I do this...no.
Am I happy with the new location after about 2 years....yes.
My suggestion, yank the relay, live with it for a while. If you decide you like it, get out your skinny hands and get in there to make it permanent.
If not, put the relay back in and no harm no foul.

Hi There
I thought about this mod, but decided not to for two reasons. We get quite a bit of rain in the UK, and if I changed the wipers to sit on the other side I would be wiping water towards my field of view, not away, and also it would take longer to clear on the first wipe. And the wipers stop the rain running straight up the screen (to some degree).

And one more thing! LHD 993s in England already have the wipers on "the other side"!
