I believe I'm going to spend my Sunday pulling my rear wiper, motor and acc then CAD'ing a plug to go into the hole. I was just going to 3D print a plug but I have considered a billet aluminum piece if others are interested. Billet machining is expensive if you "one off" the piece. But if I made 10-20 or so it becomes a lot more affordable. Either way I'm going to post a thread of the rear end after I delete the wiper.

Why would anyone want to do this?

It never rains where you are? Can't wait to see it.

It rains where i live, I use rainx on my windows so my rear window does not get covered in rain droplets which makes it hard to see through. I have personally never used my rear wiper because of using rainx. Also not a fan of the wiper shaped streak left on the window when the wiper is used. That streak survives car washes, and I find it as a eye sore.

I saw that and I like that in the post the guy showed the diameter of the hole but password JDM has 2 versions and does not share the specs (size) on either one.

I live in Seattle and I RainX all of my glass regularly.
That said, with RainX on rear glass, you WILL have it dirty in rather short period of time. Unless your rain - and road dirt - is somehow different from mine here. Does not stick. Magic... I'm envious.

yeah, we must have magic dirt. I am not exaggerating when I stated I have owned a NX since 2015 and NOT ONCE used my rear wiper. I also keep my NX very clean.

I find the rear wiper really handy in snowy conditions.
