I wouldn't delete my wiper, it's really handy and does the job. :)

A bit of RainX on the rear screen and it isn't a problem :) Not that I think it is a problem anyway.

UKDM's have them as well don't they? :?

The threaded idea is so much better and securer than a plastic bung (in the anti-theft department).

... Sure ain't no Coca-Cola bottle cap though ;-)
Some do, but it looks JDM cool. As with my neighbour's S14a 200SX.

It's probably a waste of weight & complexity (I rarely use the rear window & use the ears instead), but it looks good.

i was speaking to a guy who was changing a windscreen for me and he said he had used that glass repair resin to fill the hole after dewipering some customers cars. He reckons you couldn't really see it after.
