A new rear winshield, plus the wiper/motor assembly=$$$$$$$
Someone was talking about drilling a whole in their rear windshield, but that just freaks me out.

Sorry, I don't know anyone to do this. But considering how much a rear window is for our car, a JDM would be ridiculous.
Your defroster doesn't work good enough? I live in MN and I'm OK.
Too much work if you ask me.

So, UK, would your car be what they call a "gray-market" car. If so, how does that work? Is it registered in the UK?

A grey import is a car that was not brought into this country by a dealer, but by an individual such as myself. It is registered in the UK, the license plate will trace the car to me.

Thanks, so it is legit? So is the UK version Prelude more like the USDM or JDM Prelude?
I need a grey market skyline!

It is legit, it is now basically a UK spec car in terms of being road legal, but with the JDM goodies. Also the UKDM Prelude is basically the same as USDM, which is why I wanted JDM

Don't know how you manage without one, mind you here in Manchester you reeeaally need it!
A cheap idea is to give it a coat of RAIN-EX then when you kick-it off the mark it'll all fall off.
On the positive side though you got a cleaner loookin' rear and you get 0.000001 % less drag - Wooohoo!!

there have been sometimes when it would have been helpful in backing out
back to the original question- is there any easy way to get a rear wiper?
