Default Rear wiper motor fell out

wiper started flopping around so i pulled off panel to inspect motor.. it was help in place only by the wiper arm nut... the 3 mounting nuts/grommets had completely worn out... when removing motor i am left with 3 holes ... question is what goes in these holes to allow the 3 motor bolts to screw into ? what am i missing... the 3 bolts are still attatched to the motor... thanks

so for anyone else that has or will have this happen... this is what i came up with.... and why i just didnt do it in beginning i dont know... could not find these grommets with threaded sleeve anywhere and could not come up with anything else except... i simply rotated the motor about an inch to clear the original mounting holes and drilled new 1/8 " ones attatching motor with 3- 2 1/4 inch self tapping hex head screws... put small orings on both sides for cushion and back in business... i am a genius today

Hey, I know this is old, but thank you very much! I am going to attempt to find the grommets 1st, but if I cannot at least I have this as a backup! I was trying to figure out if it was going to be a problem bolting it metal to metal. Wonder why they did it like this in the first place!
