Heres a numpty question for everyone. Do other peoples rear wipers fold fully back to allow changing of the blades. Mine doesnt so only way I can see to change it is to unbolt it. This seems mad to me so just wanted to check.

Mine too. Not sure if its possible to remove the cap to allow it to fold back. S14 was the same.

Wouldn't be without it. Use it all the time in the winter.

Topper, its the inside knob on the left stalk, you muppet! :p

No. The 'outer-slidybit' control the speed of the front intermittent wipe. The Inner control is:

1 anti-clock notch = intermittent rear wipe
2 anti clock notch = full rear wipe
1 clock hold-notch = rear wash and wipe.

Why where you even looking at the rear wiper at 130mph to notice it lift?
I saw this beautiful wide no traffic straight and went for it :D
Heard some noise after a while and pulled over to find the rear-wiper in the up position :)

I like to think of it as an auto adjustable rear wiper. Much like Porches rear wing but activating at much higher speed ;)

IKEA is mad. They sell hot dogs for 5 SEK (?0.4) here in Sweden. cheap as hell. (they also sell some furnitures) :D
