Default Rear Wiper

Dear All,

Has anybody heard of, or for that matter have one, a wash kit for the rear wiper?

Living in Dubai, one can imagine the amount of blowing sand we get from time to time. Once the back window gets all crudded up (technical term!) using the rear wiper is futile. At least we still have 'full service' gas stations so you can just pull in and get the windshields cleaned and tip the guy a couple of dirhams (about 50 cents! but that equates to about half an hours pay!).

Looks like the design head will need to come out of the cupboard for a brief stint. Fish tank pump, non return valve, donor nozzle set up, fallopian tubing, case of beer!

That sounds like a lot of work, I'd just keep some paper towels and Windex in the cubby. And there are some foil wrapped moist individual window cleaners available in the US, keep some of those handy too.

you might be able to adapt a set of the headlight washers to your rear spoiler - plumbing might be tricky, but it could work
