...ultimate JDM - Honda Prelude Forum

redleader · 02-05-2003, 04:26 PM

well, its not news that people have been installing the JDM climate control on their 4th gen's. Seems like that's the toughest of all JDM mods. However, I have yet to see anyone even attempt the rear windshield wiper mod....not that's some serious JDM action right there!

i don't think it's a good idea to punch a hole on your rear mirror, however, i do know that there's site selling the whole jdm rear mirror w/ wiper on, pricey though

I have done so much research on that. You have to get the winshield from Japan because glass companies will not cut a hole in the glass. You also have to get the wiper assembly and switch. I tried for a year to do that, but I gave it up.

Vile what site has the window assembly. I emailed tons of people to no avail

you got me, i saw that thread like long long time ago, it's like $500-$600 if i remember it right, it's like red auto sports or something like that

Bah, aint worth it

P2W had the entire setup I think

It looks ugly IMO.

I completely agree. I know it serves a purpose and it is JDM but that is one JDM part that is fugly IMO

Mark94 · 02-06-2003, 12:25 PM

FUGLY in my opinion also.

This is one time I have to agree with Andy.

j/k

I think that's the only car that has a rear windshield wiper that is NOT a hatchback or other type of rear door opening car.

on some days, i wish i had a rear wiper so i could see ...

but once you get going fast the window cleans off and rain/snow stops hitting it anyways :Bigthumb:

vile10 · 02-06-2003, 03:04 PM

it's not that bad looking, but i think it's practical, consider our visibility actually sucks

jpprelude · 02-06-2003, 04:10 PM

Not everything JDM is better.

P2W had a whole rear clip, I think

93si4ws · 02-07-2003, 10:17 PM

too much trouble, but there are many times i wish i had a rear wiper though.

Exactly, I think its the only good feature that USDM cars have over their JDM counterparts. I think the people there should convert to our rear glass.
