In this video we show how to remove the rear wiper on a MK7 GTI and replace it with the ECS Tuning Billet Rear Wiper Delete Plug. We walk through the removal of the rear wiper, removal of the wiper motor, and removal of the plastic hatch trim.
Removing the rear wiper gives a clean symmetrical appearance to the back of your hatch. Once installed the complete assembly seals against water intrusion by way of a double-O-ring sealing design.

Might have to pick this up.. I’ve had my car for almost a year and have never used the rear wiper. I live in Texas so we get some big rain storm and you can still see out the back glass with out using the rear wiper

@PhotoshopTutsRO 6 лет назад

In my opinion, the limit between good tuning and bad tuning is when the practicality of the car lowers down with the added tuning items. If you want to make a show car, yeah, remove it, it looks very clean. But if you do this on your daily...damn, it's a stupid move.

@stockprerunner5277 6 лет назад

What did you do with the washer line? Did you plug it somehow to stop it squirting fluid all over your interior?

@devonswartz6458 Год назад

I could be wrong but only thing connected to the motor is the plug. The washer line goes up towards the third brake light where it comes out. You’ll just have washer fluid all over your window

@MrMaster2262 5 месяцев назад

Screenwash comes out from the third brake light at top of rear screen... it will still work just fine... it is only recommended to block the hose if it is attached to the wiper itself as some makes/models have this set-up. 😉👍

@goldzzz14 6 лет назад

I just use rain x on my rear windows and it works great for visibility. Only use I’d see for a rear wiper is if you’re driving in snow and the vortexes around the rear of the vehicle are causing the snow to build up between the element lines of the defroster, but that probably wouldn’t even be an issue with a car that’s warmed up inside.

@peos500 6 лет назад

drev1 This is not clean, there is a black knob on your rear window now, do you really think that looks clean? XD Its a cheapo solution. Why don't you replace the rear window with a custom one? One without a hole, dark tinted color and no heat stripes? That is clean, but not ripping out the wiper and motor and putting in a little butt plug for your ride.

I cringe when I see a fellow Vw and you see that etched line where they use rear wiper. Any Vw enthusiast will appreciate this item, great job ECS!!
