    Looking good bboyskidz

    Can you possible send us or post up a distance shot of the rear hatch without the wiper? I am just curious as to how it would look as you've got me thinking about getting rid of mine.

      Maybe I'm in the minority, but I like my rear wiper. Handy for when it rains and all

      If it has an engine or heartbeat it's going to cost you.

        yeh i thought that too but there doesn't seem to be that much of a reason to look back anyway. I have a reversing camera and side mirrors...

        sure can. It'll have to wait until the weekend as I'll be at Big Day Out tomorrow

          sorry to hear what happened to your car mate, its a low act. i know how you feel, my drivers side window got smashed in one night a few months ago, althought it was a little more expensive than $23 wiper blades and a grommet to fix unfortunately .

          seems to have worked out well in the end for you though and the new parts look awesome!

          btw, do you only have one chrome side mirror cover or did one get stolen?

            haha yeh funny story that - I whacked it off as I was rushing to catch the train to work and didn't realise that it fell under the car. I got back to the station and I drove over it that night clever one aye...

            I've got another set on order from the uk now....

                    I'm a fan of my rear wiper too, but the washer jet for it is totally limp wristed. Very disappointing.

                    How'd u get the areo's to fit?? I was under the impression it was a mk4 and above fitment only???

                      They just clip on Matty! Bosch make them for our car. I got them on mine when I did my GAP order and it was the best thing I did to my car's rain defence systems heheh.

                        yeh matty, mickey is correct sir. They have a fat book in store that you can look up your car in and get the type that will fit your car, the only difference between the models being the legth of the blade. they are so damn efficient! I'd recommend them to anyone.

                        I'm going to take the arms off again this weekend and spray them glossy black.

                        I've also got to work out how to disable the rear water sprayer because at the moment the diconnected pipe is just hanging inside the boot door lol! I haven't sprayed it in there yet but I'm going to assume that I will eventually...

                          I never thought it was possible to toughen up a set of wipers but there you go, Mickey's done it just with that description.

                          Sounds like they're weapons of mass destruction now

                            Haha oh they're lethal. Watch out rain, my BOSCH aero's will wipe you clean away

                            Anyway....Lachie what about if you locate the start of the pipe in the engine bay and stick a bit plug in it? I deleted my rear wiper one day and got to the water pipe..I couldn't be bothered to keep going and I thought a grommet on my hatch would look silly so I stopped lol.
