Rear De-wipering B4 Avant?

[Louie C]

Does anyone know anything about de-wipering a B4 Avant like in this picture?
Just wondering how he blanked the hole in the glass?

interesting .... looks much better than a dirty wiper arm hanging off it

You can buy these plugs for wiper hole. Lot of VW guys deletes their wipers.

Yeah Ive used a rubber blanking grommit on the rear of my coupe, was just wondering if there was anything better.

I have used an antenna hole plug for both my cars, but You could do it better:

Ive tried looking on Demon Tweeks website but I cant seem to find anything? Do you know what they are called? Ive tried searching for glass blanking, de wiper etc etc but nothing comes up!

The namotorsports one look okay, but it's a Canadian website I think

What a great idea

So if you drive the car in the rain, 10 minutes down the road you can see nothing out the back window, how is this a good idea?

I agree, my urS6 saloon is not as handy, as my S2 avant with a rear wiper.

It's just like wearing sunglasses in a club at night, it looks cool! (NOT)

IMHO I have driven a coupe without a rear wiper for 10 years, and touch wood it has not ever hindered what I can see through the rear window (and being a audi coupe you cant see that much!)
When you look through your rear view mirror it's only ever a glance and not a studied detail look at whats behind you! Maybe if you have severe bad vision, and you cannot make out a blob of car taking up much of that rear window! well then it's probably time to stop driving!

Truck, van, ambulance, motorbike and lorry drivers cope ok...

Totally agree

Haha my girlfriend thinks we ALL need to get a life and stop arguing about de-wipered rear window on a saturday night!

I think she is already fed up of me asking her 'do you think that looks better' 'do you think this looks better?'...... but alike the purists she probably says 'it's not about how it looks, it's about how it handles'
