Yup - short, coarse cable is the way to go if you want some work done at the motor end, rather than just a cable heater.
Is the wiper motor rated at only 20W? Are you sure? It should be at least 100W in continous duty -
then it can be (temporarily!) be overloaded some 300% without ill effects.
I doubt you'll find any Ankarsrum geared motor over at your place -
best and cheapest bet (as always!) is to go to a scrap yard
and get any biggie 24 V wiper motor from a full-size truck or bus.
Bring at least an ohm-meter for checking it, better still is a small 12 V SLA battery in your rucksack.
Good luck and keep up the good work!
Cheers
Johan
