Yup, I installed a 12 volt motor in my 47... that retainer clip, though small & unusual - does the job.. install it and leave it alone.. the original was still in my old wiper when I pulled it out.. came apart ONLY after I had to yank on it to disconnect the arms..

My wipers function flawlessly! I hope that helps!
