removing rear wiper

[golfmk31993]

hi,

i would like to remove my rear windscreen wiper , but i need one of those little stopper bung things to put in the hole that will be left

,anyone know were i can get one from?

also is it hard to remove the rear wiper???

[nelds]

does the bung/stopper go into the glass or the boot lid......I seem to remember looking thru PVW and Venom where advertising a glass bung, didn't catch what make/model is was for tho

[golfmk31993]

goes into the boot were the rear wiper is attached

[nelds]

ah ok, must have been for a mark 4 then..........could you not just patch/fill where it was..?

[boneybradley]

you could fill the hole..or go to b&q and buy a simple grommit bung thing....

hmm definatly dnt wanna fill the hole,     BaQ i think id struggle to find the rite size, and id wanna paint it,

has no1 done this before???

its a really simple job

and the grommet u need will be very easy to source, measure the diameter of the hole, go on ebay and do a search for blanking grommets, find one with the internal diameter which is the same as the hole in the tailgate

job done

cost hardly anything

i smoothed mine off myself looks better then a big ugly grommet

i smoothed mine off myself looks better then a big ugly grommet

WORD, these grommits in the holes look awful!

[kells]

the grommets look ok when they are on the glass, did this mod on my jap car and that was on the glass, on the mk 3 it looks better on a black car as it blends in more, but its not the hole or the gromet that makes it look bab, its the fact its a bulge in the panel that the wiper sits on that makes it look sh!te when the wiper is removed, if its propperly smooted level then it looks cool

iv left mine on as i dont intend to smooth the tailgate....
