Default Anyone ever modify a EG rear wiper to work with a duckbill?

I just put on a duckbill and now it won't work with my rear wiper since the wing extends too far down, blocking the path of the wiper. I previously did not know that the wiper would not work with a duckbill. Just wondering if any of you modified your rear wiper to work with the duckbill? I might just end up removing the wiper and plugging it up. Also, does anyone know the part number for a 92-95 civic hatch rear wiper plug? TIA

couldnt you just get a shorter wiper? That would be the more logical thing to do.

BTW, the wing is from JDMshit.com. Not sure if it's just the JDMshit wing or if other brand wings have the same problem?

Hmm good point...I'll have to try that out first before I go removing/plugging the wiper.

I just cut the end of my wiper about 3mm with a blade and now it works perfectly. It's hard as hell to change the actual wiper, I wouldn't worry about it too much.
