Rear Wiper??

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=1833476676

I've seen maybe 1 or two f-bodies that have had rear wipers... And the ones that I've seen looked like a hack of a job, and didn't look stock at all to me. Please correct me if I'm wrong, but as far as I know this wasn't an option... I'm thinking perhaps the person who put this auction up meant rear defogger or something...

My 85 IROC has the rear wiper. The switch, by the way, is on the low, left side of the dash. Mine even has the rear washer, though perhaps all of them did.

i think JamesC is right, cuase in the pic, on ebay, that would be the driver side (left) lower panel. Makes sense. If they had it between the power window switchs, where would the hatch release go? I not sayin your wrong wuter, just that JamesC makes more sense. It could have been that way on your car, i dunno, cuase i never seen it.

yeh, it always sadens me to see it when peple don't take care of there thirdgen, cuase these cars are simply the greatest cars ever and I love them to death (still gotta have a vette though) And the best part, they are dirt cheap and easy to find. Repair cost can get expensive, but regualar maintance is a big money saver in the long run.

Yeah, that's where I saw one as well. There's so many neglected thirdgens around here it makes me sad! (But happy in a sense that I know mine looks nice) But then I just come on the boards and see everyone's cars on here and
