Damn I really want to get a new blade for it, and ive been doing my reseach...most peeps on scionxb say they jsut remove it because getting a replacement means going to the dealer...and screw that!

We need a nice billet aftermarket wiper...yes, ive looked =(

thoughs?

Wow, so you must get the replacement from a dealer, that means you'll pay double what it is worth. However, I do like it, so I guess I'll have to shell out the cash for it.

I used to use my rear wiper too, but then I shaved it and am glad I did. You won't miss it once its gone and you see how much better the car looks.

Mine is gone as well. I wasn't going to buy a new one from the dealer. Looks a lot better, although I haven't been able to get the hole filled yet so it's plugged for the time being. Guess if you ever need a motor for yours you know there are plenty of people out there that have one.......LOL :Banane02:

With all of us that have them removed, there should be a lifetime supply just in SciKoTiCs alone. :rofl2:

But I agree on the never missing it part. But my bride won't let me shave hers. :lalala: OK..that didn't sound right..... She likes her little wiper. :doh:

RainX the glass, and stuff a camera in there :up:

Man the way you guys talked I thought that little piece of rubber was a fortune at the dealer. I got one today for a whopping $2.69. LOL

Nah, I'll be keeping mine as much as it rains around here.

Toyota makes a JDM chrome wiper arm for the rear. Looks really nice if you are into chrome.

Alright...so after Greg and I talked about it...and he decided to finally call the dealer to find out, we have a cheap solution to those who WANT to keep your rear wiper.

The dealer sells the rubber inserts (that are not sold at Kragen/Autozone/ECT)....

Not and arm and a leg...maybe a fingernail! haha

$5 for the insert....and Greg...yes I got you one :up: lol
