How do you go about removing the rear window wiper?

That is the best description I have seen on this forum yet. Kudos to you my good man, you should be made moderator of the tech forums

And yes, I am making a ute. AWD Focus with a tray, and the wiper has to go for aerodynamic purposes.

*looks at his mod status.. oh look there it is general tech :P

Im tired been at work since 7am leave me alone :P hehe

I would assume pulling it off is just the same as the front ones, havent ever looked to be honest, except when i was thinking of replacing it with a Pug 206 one way back when

Woot i was right... first focus ute.. nice work

Yeah the base of the wiper has about a 5-6 cm section made of black plastic that hinges outwards, just pull it firmly. Then you just need a wrench or spanner to undo the nut. That easy.

Just as i said, pull the thingy off the other thingy and then remove the nut thingy

God i am tired !
