    I love my rear wiper, its so handy.

    If you want to delete it couldn't you just buy a rubber grommet from clark rubber to plug the hole instead of buying a delete from o/s?

    There are proper glass plugs available from overseas made specifically for this application. IMO it would look much nicer than just a rubber plug. But the rubber plug might be more reversable.

    I plan to fit one of these for summer.

    Liked the fact they have an O-ring and screw in rather than glue/silicon. A friend is currently looking into making a similar design.

    even with silicone it's reversible, you just need to scrape it off when you put the wiper back on
