Do it when you get home. I never had a problem . Have you tinted your rear window.   :undecided:
I guess you have never done a long journey in the winter, say on a wet motorway; occasionally its very important to see who that may be sat in that car behind you.. :wink:

Look for the fix guide on mk-ivs.net, for leaking rear wiper. That may still work for you. Or, I am pretty sure you can but that bit seperate but will require taking motor apart to fix.

I was lucky, got my motor from the local scrappie, was off an Audi and it wipes the opposite way to normal, but I'm not complaining for the sake of £15.  :wink:
