Rear wiper install

[rmoltis]

it sure would be nice to have a rear windshield wiper.

Ehh, I measured it myself.

Found the center, and just drilled the hole just a tad above the rubber of the window.

But anyway, here it is. Glad to finally have one, also got to test it today because of all the storms.

Here is my hint. I grabbed the thinnest coat hanger in my closest and unraveled it and straightened it out. Then I took out the push clamp things that hold up the rear of the headliner and dropped it down a bit. Tie/Tape the end of the hose to the end of the hanger and route it up to the roof line. Once you can see it undo it from the hanger and pull some slack out and let it hang there. Now take the right wing window out and then from that window opening take your hose and tie/tape it back to the hanger so you can route it across the roof and over to the nozzle.

That might work except I have an '89 with a fabric headliner.....hmmmmmm

Torque, you're not finished yet. The Escort rear wiper gear mod is next.

Just say no!! All the cool kids stay erect!

looks great awesome.

makes me wanna source my own wiper setup.

my vortex generators create a high pressure zone back there on my window so the air velocity helps keep my rear windows clear.
even dry on some heavy rain days when im on the freeway.

I want some Dyson blowers for my windshield and backlite too.

Though I may have to look into a stronger hatch strut sometime, with the extra weight it no longer lifts up by itself, so I have to assist it all the way up, but once it is up it will hold it there at least.

Here here! I do like how it stands vertical instead of flat. Plus it would cover my window decals if it were to lay flat anyway.
