Title: Rear Wiper & Armrest delete.
Post by: ksab on 02 May 2014, 12:27

Hi guys, my rear wiper washer cap is broken, which means instead of spraying water at the glass it just goes straight out the back and sprays the person behind me like a James Bond gadget. I know the washer caps are very cheap to replace but it got me thinking whether i should proceed with the replacement or just take the opportunity to do the full rear wiper delete. The lid on my interior armrest also has a damaged hinge so i'm thinking could i also 'delete' the armrest.  I know the reqr wiper is fairly simple to do, i just need to locate the correct Plug. However, i haven't had a go at doing the Armrest before so this will be a new thing for me.

arm rest is just a case of removing the trim and a few bolts to undo it, then buying a insert to replace the hole thats left.

however you can buy new hinges from ebay ;)
