Twin pump washer bottle to power the rear wiper spray...



I was torn between getting Prodrive mudflaps or Aero mud guards....These were cheaper...



And It's whenever Im browsing for other **** that I come across something special...

JDM rear wiper install...

Went down to the bodyshop to drop off some misc. items. Turns out the glass was installed so I took it upon myself to do the wiper install...
1st step was unbolting the already mounted wiper motor and inserting the 1st grommet on the inside of the glass. Then bolting the wiper motor back up and installing the spray nozzle along with its own grommet on the outside. Secure the grommets with the large (20mm? hex washer)



Install the cap over the hex washer



Install the wiper arm and secure with the m6 nut



Then install the wiper arm bolt cover



Finish by installing the wiper motor cover



Voila...Uber Cool JdMzOrs

Hehe. That's my old stompin' grounds. I lived just off Winding way, so I used to drive through there everyday to go to school. Pops hitting the apexes as a kid is probably what started the car bug for me!!!
