It mounts in the bracket in the center of your picture, the one with slotted holes in it, with a support arm which mounts to the dash to fire wall support.

You should have a brace from the firewall to the underside of the dash. You can see two screws/nuts in the previous picture right under the ignition switch mounting hole that secures this brace. This brace also holds the swing lever for opening the fresh air vent on the cowling. The lower(round) part of the wiper motor is mounted to this brace, with a piece of flat bar twisted 90*. You will have to improvise some, because it's not a direct fit. I had to used a spacer between the brace and mounting tab. Look closely and you can see the black tab with a short bolt used as a spacer. hope this helps. Wipers work good now.
