I think only touring models came with the rear wiper, along with the Bose Audio system.

I got a 93 Touring and have that ugly *** wiper. It doesnt even work for some reason so now its ugly AND useless. I keep hearing theres a fuse that controls both the rear wiper and the ABS but I have no idea which one it is so both of them dont work haha.

Any chance on someone posting some pics on how to remove the rear wiper?
There's no screws of anything under the hatch, should I just pull on it firmly till it clips off? Or is there a special way of going about this?

Lakusta, check the Factory Service Manual for how to remove the wiper. (The link to DL it is in a sticky) It has a good diagram about what needs to be removed and in what order.

Thanks, I wasn't sure, I searched it in the search bar and whatnot, but this seemed most relevant to my interest!
