Default Bosch Headlamp Wiper Motor Service / Restoration

Hi Enthusiasts

So whilst being extremely careful assembling the LHS headlamp wiper motor I snapped the PTC thermistor for the second time again whilst slotting into position. Yes that little orange pink disc. I freaked out and almost blew a head gasket after this happened. So now I would like to please know what can I do or use to replace this part as its physically almost non-existent to buy new in that type. I'm searching threads and every lead I find, local suppliers can't get the part and say I have to import a part which costs less than a packet of crisps.

I'm open to ideas & suggestions. Also please want to know how to work out what rating of this device for replacement. the numbers shown on the broken bits don't make a hole lot of sense.

What is the stock setup or instructions to set the wiper motors correctly. I've seen a lot of different threads and each person gives their idea. is there a proper way to calculate the setup using the indicators on the gear wheels.

Ill post some pics later of all of this to give an idea on what talking about

Cheers
