  • Swapping a Non wiper back hatch to a rear wiper hatch

    how hard is it to swap back hatchs. I've have found a blue hatch that matchs my car and I was curious to see how hard it is to swap. I have swap a hatch before and it was just a hatch swap and wires. Just curious if it was the same if it has a wiper. any help would be great.

    Should be the same hatch, no problem. Youll probably need to get you a rear wiper switch and a rear window washer reservoir w/motor. They both will bolt up and plug in.

      It's a easy swap, I just did it on my Festiva a few days ago, the hardest part for me was running the wires through the c-pillar. The rest was really easy!

        Except there is a possibility that your car is not pre-wired for it. I HAVE seen it
