just bought one of these looks great and better more secure than the rubber bung

Rear wiper is one of those weird JDM-sh it type things - d'you really wanna delete it?

Some people would probably buy a screen-printed wiper sticker from E-bay, to go with the JDM drift Panda...

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 ;-)

I would personally never delete mine.

Its unbelievably functional IMO. In the wet i get to see Civics in the rear view more clearly.

I put a slightly too large rubber bung in when I did a rear wiper delete on my Golf, it's nice and snug and doesn't let any water in.

I like the idea of this one though, however if it's solid plastic how does it make a watertight seal? :?

Also who steals a wiper bung?! :lol:
