So it’s been really ****** weather here lately, and the back window of my extended cab truck is always foggy, or covered in snow/rain.
I was planning to install aftermarket defroster lines as it’s seems like the most logical solution.
Now I was thinking, and came up with either a brilliant or incredibly stupid idea. Why couldn’t a rear wiper be installed for the rear window of my truck?!? All my suvs have got them and they work great, especially for someone as **** about clean glass as I am! Most of the wiper assemblies are one little box that houses all the motor and gears, all I would have to do (I think) would drill a hole into the metal beneath the rear window.
Now even crazier idea would be to use the assembly from that odd 90s Toyota wagon with the dual rear wipers. I could have coverage of the whole glass lmao. More logically though, a unit from a Suburban/Tahoe body would be much easier to find from a junkyard, and I could then use the oem controls and electrics because all the dash and stalk controls and interchangeable.
It would look a little silly (or badass?), but it sure as hell would be nice during bad weather. Iv seen people put wipers on cab tops before, but never on the truck itself.
What do y’all think about this odd idea? If I can find all the right parts for cheap I might just try it...
