EP3 De-rear wiper

[^Joe]

What parts do I need for this? - Just a bung thing?

Do they come in a pack, or is it a Honda jobby.

Why would you want to do this?

Personally i'm looking to remove as much weight from the car as possible...

All be it a small amount,,, but it all adds up ...

Yes mate, if I've done all the packing. That would be pretty spesh! Thanks!

Good question Stu.

Also, as the car has been passed fit for road use in the UK (mass production SVA applies) then would the wiper removal actually throw up an MOT issue?

Personally I would just get a carbon tailgate and keep the wiper, I like to see what's behind as well as in front.

PI like to see what's behind as well as in front.

Funny, so do I - I can understand Mark doing it as his is a track slag, but Joe? noobinder.

why would you not be able to see out of the back just because the wipers gone?

 

[dotty]

Why do you think they put them there?

If I didn't want to see out of the back I would have bought an FN2 :lol:

well i assume to wipe the water hence their name but round my way water tends to be a transparent liquid and doesn't immediately remove all vision out of the rear of my car, frankly i've had no rear wiper on mine for about 3 years and never had any trouble seeing behind me

 

[Neily03]

The biggest issue with rear wipers is that the rear screen gets very gritty (as does the whole rear of the car) and then when wiped it scratches the glass. I've always tried to avoid using them for that reason.

 

[Suits]

Got to agree on not doing this TBH. On a road car anyway, its just going to get annoying, in the winter especially.

Track car I suppose it would be different, but being able to wipe away the grim and dirt without having to get out of the car is a bonus is it not?
