No coding or errors. You can code the rear wiper out, but since it’s disconnected that’s the same thing?

I just cable tied all the loose wires up out the way during the process.

I think the rear lock mechanism needs to come out first to get the rear wiper motor out. I didn’t do this because my panel had been butchered before, but I’m sure this step is needed.

I’ll post photos when I’m home!

If you code out your rear wiper, you won't have the issue of the front screen wash running when you push the stalk forward.
I just removed the rear hose at the pump to do away with the chance of the back door getting wet from an accidental activation of the rear wash. I have also fitted the correct stalk for a car with no rear wiper.

Thanks Doc - I asked this exact same question on the electrical bit, thanks for answering!

Did you swop the pump? Or just disconnect?

Does disconnecting the rear wiper motor also turn off the rear window heater?

Didn't get around to fit the sensors, as I haven't decided on a bumper strategy yet.

Did lower it tho :D

Wasn't happy with the rear wheel alignment, so fitted some RAD axle relocating plates using the 15mm setting, and chopped the bumpstop down one notch.

You can either cut down your old bulkhead and carpet line them, or get the trims from eBay. The parts codes are on the forum somewhere. I got mine from eBay. There are 4 parts (1 upper & lower each side).
