| Wiper arm
I've seen this before but cant remember where....does anyone know where i can find a how-to on making the rear wiper arm point straight up instead of laying flat? i would appreciate it  |

| You should have to just pop the car off the nut holding wiper on, remove the nut and wiper and turn the wiper how you want it and tighten everything back up. I haven't done it, but I don't see how it wouldn't work.
May have to turn it on to a certain point and attach it, not sure. | |

| If it gets to crazy just shut the key off. Go for it, you can do it!  | |

| The odds are if you reposition the wiper in the up mode it will contiue in the same directionright off the hatch however if you were to reverse the wires on the wiper motor it should cause it to swing down from the up position. | |
