took mine off. Used the plastic piece the wiper goes through, filled in the hole from the inside, painted it black, and sealed it back on the opening! Didn't work anyway

I have yet to buy the little circle filler piece so I can take mine off. And no, it's not for the JDM yO! effect, or weight...I think the wiper back there is usless...Especially where I live. I did the same on my old Integra, looked really clean.

I still have mines. Sometimes it rains hard and I always check back with my rear view mirror. So, yep! I still have mines.

It doesn't rain much here, but when it does, I use my rear wiper. Also, when there's moisture on my windows on cold mornings, it helps.

I still have mine...but I definately need a new blade for it (the blade is so worn that all the "blade" has worn off and its just a flat piece of rubber). But yeah, I don't think I will be taking mine off. I see no need to take it off. It's nice when its raining cause that window does tend to get covered in rain and doesnt like to run off like the rest of the windows do...

taking that blade off is a pain in the ***...i posted once in regards to it, but really didn't get a response back..you can't take whole piece off like the front wipers. i left my motor on... function beats weight savings for me.

Actually all the "SiRs" in Japan have the wiper, so its not "GayDM" (whoever said that gay ****). And you'll still have the ******* box back there that has the motor (for the window latch too) so whats the ******* point. This is the gayest thing ever, the car better be totally gutted out before anyone considers this a "weight removal" item.

For some odd reason some people don't respect prefrences of other people...

I personally, as stated earler find little to no use for my rear wiper in California. It rains maybe 2 weeks out of the year, and when it does...Having a wiper doesn't do much. The rear window is at almost the same angle of my girlfriends Prelude, she doesn't have a wiper and everything seems to be A-OK. I still have mine on until I take my lazt self to Honda to pick up the plug I ordered.
