i own a evo 9 rs and want to install the rear window wiper. wondering if anyone has done it? Do rs's have the wiring there so all i would need to do is bolt it in and plug it in? thanks.

 

I have a 2006 MR with 179 miles on it. I am going to remove my rear wiper assembly if you are interested.

PS Does your rear window have a hole in it ?

 

no it don't. i just thought of that so i dont know if its possible to get it done somewhere or i would have to buy a whole rear window. im not too far from you. when u think u will take it off and how much?

and wow only 179 miles on it??? does it just sit?

 

I remember the day I bought the RS & was disappointed that the rear wiper was non included.
After 2 years of ownership I have a better understanding of the RS model & would not even consider the mod........Your situation maybe different & understand if you need the wiper if you do a lot of all weather driving.

Peace (BTW, Thanks for posting in the RS Owners Thread =)

 

it would help with all the snow we been getting plus rain. i dd my evo and i don't baby it. thats why i want it. plus it looks cool on wingless evos.

 

Yowza, might take some time getting it to look good, unless you're handy with body work

 

I have a 06 IX with rear wiper, etc...If interested I'd be willing to do a straight up trade with you. If you'd be willing to do the drive to Barberton, OH (44203) I'd pay a guy to come out and swap the windows for us. PM me if interested!

The switch would take a lot of work to do properly. The Turn Signal Stalk on the steering column would need to be changed along with the twin pump tank in the trunk. Although I am sure all the wiring would be their. The hole in the winsdhield would be no problem for a glass shop to perform.

hmmm im thinking this is not really worth the trouble and time and $. but i really want one!

to the guy who wants to trade, i really dont have the time to drive out to OH but thanks for the offer. i would do it if u were closer.

 

you can pick up the whole system for cheap. do it trust me you would love having it! Im trying to do it to my X. thats going to be a task!

 

If the wiring is their for the wiper motor, pump and the stalk switch wiring has the same electrical connector I will trade you the components for free. Check your local glass shop if they will put a hole in your windshield. I really don't want to remove my rear window.
