#1: With or Without Rear Wiper?? Author: Sophia-206-GT, Location: East SussexPosted: Sat Sep 18, 2010 4:15 am ---- Do you think the 206 looks better with or without the rear wiper??
is it actually a requirement for the MOT to pass??
#2: Re: With or Without Rear Wiper?? Author: tomd0801754, Location: MoscowPosted: Sat Sep 18, 2010 4:16 am ---- Without and no.

So why are some newer cars coming out of the factory without rear windscreen wipers?

i find it's more for a smoother back and if i still had the 206 i'd certainly have done it now
thinking about doing the twingo aswell xD
#13: Re: With or Without Rear Wiper?? Author: Harry, Location: StaffordPosted: Sat Sep 18, 2010 7:05 am ---- Definately without.
And edward I don't know why both times you've had to bring money into it, it just looks so much better. Even if you had to spend £££ on a new rear window that was smoothed in I would definately buy it. Would it be ok then as it cost money? Don't see the logic in what your saying at all.
#14: Re: With or Without Rear Wiper?? Author: Edward, Location: In the garagePosted: Sat Sep 18, 2010 7:39 am ---- It's basically a kids thing...modifying on a budget or for no budget!
#15: Re: With or Without Rear Wiper?? Author: Ash, Location: Running from Ant and Lee and Adam...........Posted: Sat Sep 18, 2010 8:01 am ---- With in my opinion. You are removing a function of a car that is useful. Really don't see the point to get rid.

#17: Re: With or Without Rear Wiper?? Author: Sophia-206-GT, Location: East SussexPosted: Sat Sep 18, 2010 1:12 pm ---- because i think it looks better..and fair enough it probably is the cheapest mod but dont automatically presume i cant afford anything else..the result is much better without it in my own opinion..but thanks for your input..glad everyones got different opinions..or all our cars would look the same!
#18: Re: With or Without Rear Wiper?? Author: Timon2210, Location: PalestinePosted: Sat Sep 18, 2010 1:19 pm ---- I would say keep it :D,car looks much better with it,try the badgless ,it's cheap,and looks nice too

#21: Re: With or Without Rear Wiper?? Author: Dabamash, Location: The car in frontPosted: Sat Sep 18, 2010 1:34 pm ---- My car is also badgless. It would look good without the wiper, but I find myself using the wiper a lot, so i'd probably miss it. It's up to you to be honest.
#22: Re: With or Without Rear Wiper?? Author: bertt, Location: chesterPosted: Sat Sep 18, 2010 1:43 pm ---- i havent missed my wiper to be honest and it does look alot better.
EDIT: but thats because im a pikey kid who can't afford any other mods.

Never under estimate the power of a rear view mirror and your back window lol.
#24: Re: With or Without Rear Wiper?? Author: meady, Location: basingstokePosted: Sat Sep 18, 2010 1:48 pm ---- i thought that before i bought ny new car ( well old car now) that already had the rear wiper removed and you dont really notice the fact that it aint there, it looks so much beter without it,
so in otherwords edward unless a mod costs a bit of money you cant do it due to the fact that its childish ???
#25: Re: With or Without Rear Wiper?? Author: Teebag, Location: exhall, bedworth, coventryPosted: Sat Sep 18, 2010 1:49 pm ---- i didnt have a choice with mine, my mate had been on at me for ages to do it but i kinda liked having the rear wiper there untill on day he turned up on my door step and handed my wiper arm and half the mechanism to me (he just took a hacksaw to it so i couldnt replace it ) after then i've been dewipered. looks smoother tho so helps with the euro theme i'm heading down lol.
#26: Re: With or Without Rear Wiper?? Author: meady, Location: basingstokePosted: Sat Sep 18, 2010 1:53 pm ---- sounds like a good friend should of gone and done the same to his car, would of gone mad if some one done that to my car
#27: Re: With or Without Rear Wiper?? Author: Teebag, Location: exhall, bedworth, coventryPosted: Sat Sep 18, 2010 1:56 pm ---- nah, he'd already done it so couldnt do it back.... waiting to see his new car now to vandalise that he just bought a fiesta st..... thinking i might curb his alloys when i take it for a spin lol...... only kidding couldnt do that to a car....
#28: Re: With or Without Rear Wiper?? Author: meady, Location: basingstokePosted: Sat Sep 18, 2010 1:58 pm ---- na that would be ging a bit to far, jus take the wiper blades off the car one nite though and the glass from the mirrors and wait to see his face the next morning when he goes out to the car

#34: Re: With or Without Rear Wiper?? Author: Harry, Location: StaffordPosted: Sun Sep 19, 2010 11:26 am ---- IMO-
The rear wiper has no function for me, it's crap and I don't use it.
I don't see or understand the "kids" or "poor" comment. We can all agree that a lowered car looks better than a car at standard height it doesn't matter how cheap or expensive the suspension kit is.
I see the exact same with this. A de wiperd back looks a lot nicer than a car with it on. Maybe it's just the look you are going for and some people think it looks better with it on, don't see why but we are all allowed an opinion.
#35: Re: With or Without Rear Wiper?? Author: JordGJ, Location: Leeds / West MidlandsPosted: Sun Sep 19, 2010 11:29 am ---- Mines off as well because im poor
#36: Re: With or Without Rear Wiper?? Author: ReeVo, Location: HullPosted: Sun Sep 19, 2010 11:31 am ---- I see the practicality over the change in appearance and would keep it on.
I used mine today as a matter of fact

#38: Re: With or Without Rear Wiper?? Author: ChinaB, Location: TynesidePosted: Sun Sep 19, 2010 11:47 am ---- Keep it on, to me it seems utterly pointless to remove it. I suppose it depends how concerned you are that other people even notice it!
#39: Re: With or Without Rear Wiper?? Author: JmeRaynor, Location: NottinghamPosted: Tue Sep 21, 2010 2:53 pm ---- i cant see why people say it needs to be there, what about when you drive a van?
I drive a transit so when in the car have never used the rear window wiper ;/ not saying i don't use the rear mirror
