Default Wiper arm

Hey there,

I was wondering if there is anything on the market to de-wiper the back of the Z?

I love the bum of the car all bar the ugly wiper that comes standard on our Aus spec cars - so has anyone came across anything to remove & fill the hole it leaves in the bootlid?

I wouldnt have any experience with the 370Z since the US version doesnt come with one, but on the old 350Z, people would buy a nylon hole plug from a local hardware store.

Heres a reference i found for the 350Z.

Haha, I'm just the opposite, I would LOVE to have a wiper arm back there. Every morning I can't see anything behind me due to dew on mirrors, rear window, etc. My backup camera just doesn't cut it when changing lanes!
I don't have any suggestion better than the plastic plug. Sounds pretty good to me.

OP, I could recommend against anything other than getting it professionally repaired or the product that Vivid provided

My 350z came with a rear wiper and when I tried to plug it usig one of the sink stopper solutions I found that it ended up letting water in

I would just leave it, it comes in handy for me in the winter time
