This DIY is on my DC5 but applies to most all vehicles. This install only took 20-30 minutes of my time but definitely looks great.

Here is my plug, around $25 bucks





And here is how my car sits now





First start with the outside cover over the wiper arm bolt. Just pop the cover up to expose the 12mm nut.


Then pull off the wiper arm


Remove the rubber cover and use a cresent wrench to remove the large nut


Next go inside the car and start with the phillips screw in the handle.


next remove the screws in the tabs that hold up the rear window screen


Next use a door popper to remove the side panels




Then pull down the main wiper motor cover


Here is the exposed hatch


Unplug the motor


Remove the 3 10mm bolts holding the wiper on


Pull it down and shut the hatch.


Now remove the metal washer


and pop out the grommet


Now time to install! put it in the hole and screw it together. That easy!


clean and admire

 

Looks so much cleaner. did mine couple months ago.. my plugs different though for a rear wiper delete. looks good though!

 

Good stuff.

Did mine a few months back with a different solution, sink hole cover from Home Depot in black.

I'll take a pic tonight

 

first off im new to HT so my first post. i never use the rear wiper so this is def a good writ up. quick question: is there a certain plug you use?

 

The OP's plug is aftermarket and probably can be found on eBay.

I ended up using the OEM metal plug from a 92-95 Civic hatchback.

 

yeah the plug i got was around i think 12 bucks off ebay.
