[hondadna]

I have a 93 ex coupe and rely need a rear wiper i cant see s**t when it rains water doesnt move off the window it just sits there like its wax! I ve seen soom pics of 4 door in japan with wipers I think the VTi,and SiR had them (rains alot in japan so most of there cars have them) but i cant find any thing to put them on my car. I was thinking on buying Si parts from the junk yard and finding some way to put them on my car.....before I mess my $hit up some one help me!!!!!!!

Rain-X works wonders

well i can tell you that a wiper on a coupe isnt a good idea.... it just wont work.. and you WILL mess things up... just put some RainX on there

comon people why would it mess things up and not work, ive used all those things they just bead the water and it sits there in my way ....I talked to some glass instalers and they said its easy to drill a hole in glass with a diamond tip drill bit..... and there is a lot of room were the third brake light is(my car has the lighted wing so no third brake light is there)...and the shaft of the wiper arm is smaller then the space between the defrost lines so no problem there and the wireing is no deal for me Im a wiz at that...the ESi coupe and VTi coupe had wipers so whats up with that ,..you can buy anything jdm from stickers to engines but ive not found any thing for this............. some one can help me better where you at

if you must do it then look at getting a rear wiper from a 92-95 or 96-00 hatch back civic, and get the motor and everything needed to make it work. aboout drilling into glass i would take it to some one professional to do that part.

good luck and let us know if it works

you would need a much larger wiper and make it move across a wider path since the coupe window and hatch window is significantly different. You would need probably like a 19".

still the concept is the same.

instead of picking up a "JDM rear windshield wiper", why dont u just put some rain x like everybody says u should do...and from time to time look at your side view mirrors to look behind you...works for me....


or u can always pull over and wipe it off every half mile or so..

thanks for the + notes ill post some pics in spring I got a motor for a 94 HB and a arm for a 98 HB ..I like the way the new arms look...so far the motor works fine with the new arm I got a switch for a 92 Si all works fine. the space needs some work to look good but fits all good
