You can add the wipers to your mods without permission

Spoiler: Note for MOZA Multi-function Stalks users

By default there are no bindings for the wiper stalk. To add them, go to Settings>Controls>Vehicle and find "Wipers" in the list.

Spoiler: How to add animated wipers to your own mod

Basic knowledge of Blender and jBeam required!
1. Convert the wipers mesh into separate props (take the wipers mesh, separate it into two (or more if needed) meshes, then set the origin of each wiper to where the axle would be and finally rotate each of them so that their "axis" are parallel to one of the X, Y or Z axis).
2. Copy this code into your jbeam part (usually windshield jbeam)

Code:

"controller": [

        ["fileName"],
        ["animatedWipers" {"name":"animatedWipers", "wipersNode":"int1l", "ignitionIndependent":true, "wiperProfile":"normal"}]
    ],
"props": [
        ["func", "mesh", "idRef:","idX:","idY:", "baseRotation", "rotation", "translation", "min", "max", "offset", "multiplier"]
        ["wiperVal", "etkc_wiper_L", "f12ll", "f12l", "p1l", {"x":-87, "y":-153, "z":11.4}, {"x":5, "y":5, "z":-87}, {"x":0, "y":0, "z":0}, 0, 1, 0, 1],
        ["wiperVal", "etkc_wiper_R", "f12r", "f12l", "wi1", {"x":75, "y":-9.8, "z":-8.4}, {"x":0, "y":0, "z":-90}, {"x":0, "y":0, "z":0}, 0, 1, 0, 1],
    ],

• Set the "wipersNode" to the name of a node that should emit wiper sounds
  
• If you don't want wipers to move when ingintion is OFF, then set the ' "ignitionIndependent":true ' to false.
• If you want a racing-style single wiper (like in the Civetta Bolide) change the "wiperProfile":"normal" to "wiperProfile":"race"
• If your vehicle has rear wiper, paste this code into the jbeam where the rear wiper is
  
  Code:

  "animatedWipers":{
          "hasRearWiper": true
      },
  "props": [
          ["func", "mesh", "idRef:", "idX:", "idY:", "baseRotation", "rotation", "translation", "min", "max", "offset", "multiplier"],
          ["wiperValR", "vivace_wiper_rear", "t3r", "t3l", "t2", {"x":12, "y":0, "z":0}, {"x":0, "y":170, "z":0}, {"x":0, "y":0, "z":0}, 0, 1, 0, 1],
  ],
  

• If your vehicle has headlight wipers, paste this code into the jbeam where the headlight wipers are (and set the appropriate wipersNodeHeadlight)
  
  Code:

  "animatedWipers":{
          "hasHeadlightWiper": true,
          "wipersNodeHeadlight":"he1l"
      },
      "props": [
          ["func", "mesh", "idRef:","idX:","idY:", "baseRotation", "rotation", "translation", "min", "max", "offset", "multiplier"]
          ["wiperValH", "etki_wiper_R_headlight", "g2rr", "g2r", "g1r", {"x":0, "y":0, "z":-2}, {"x":0, "y":-130, "z":0}, {"x":0, "y":0, "z":0}, 0, 1, 0, 1],
          ["wiperValH", "etki_wiper_L_headlight", "g2ll", "g2l", "g1l", {"x":180, "y":180, "z":-2}, {"x":0, "y":130, "z":0}, {"x":0, "y":0, "z":0}, 0, 1, 0, 1],
      ],

3. Fine-tune the "baseRotation" and "rotation" values (usually the longest part, you'll need lots of patience)
4. Download this mod for the wipers controller (this will allow for automatic updates when I update the script)
