Default Soarer Rear Window

I was wondering if anyone else in the U.S. has done this mod. Ive had it on here for about 6 months now and everyone that notices it asked me how come theirs doesnt have it.
the holes are already on the rear deck for the shaft and washer but had to cut in the trunk.

I had ordered one last year, but when it came it was broken. They promised me another one, but I haven't heard from them since. So now I'd only buy one locally, but that's gonna be next to impossible. Oh well...

There's no such thing as a UKDM Soarer, they're all JDM Soarers privately imported into the country like Australia, the UK etc.

And yeah I've got that option but I'm not in the US so that counts me out

Damn I want one... Ever since I got rid of my 92 Celica GT-S Hatch I miss having a rear windshield wiper.
Do they give you the arm replacement also? You know the switch that turns the rear one on.

I would imagine it's somehow wired to just go on with the normal wiper functions? Unless for now he's just got it there until he can get it wired up.

To each his own but IMO it's just clutter. No thanks.
