the hole (i didnt get around to measuring the size):

as you can see you need another window or just drill a hole and paint a orange line/pin stripe around it so it looks normal.

the motor:

the squirtee hose:

just goes into the un-drilled hole in your water tank thingy up front

the mounts:

and i forgot to get a pic of the actual wiper itself lol :slap: but any normal rear wiper off any other car should work (mines off our barina) but some wipers might hit the squirtee thingy

My Integra has a rear wiper, and the squirter is actually mounted on the roof, just above the rear window!! It does not work though for some reason. One day I might look into it. But when I repaint the car, I had thought about doing away with the rear wiper and squirter alltogether, I think it makes the back look cluttered. I like clean lines and less crap on a car....

well it should only be cheap, theres a guy on trademe selling a car for parts, would be alot easier drilling a hole in the window (if possible) but the wiper parts itself should be less than $70US (from someone else)

You would need the high mount stop light also. It's in a different location on those rear wiper cars.

I wish I could get variable intermitent wipers too. I don't know if LHD combo switched with variable Int wipers were made. I guess I'll have to look into that.

yeah umm, all u gotta do is move it up a little bit, no biggie :) just need glue and another seal or something, im not too sure on the combo switches though, but if the did fit, you would prolly be turning on the lights instead of the wipers and vice versa cause you would be used to the LHD ones
