You need wiring harness, defogger equipped rear glass, wash bottle, pump, nozzle, wiper mechanism itself to name a few. An OEM fitted one will also activate automatically when you are reversing the vehicle when front wipers are on. So connection to BCM too is needed.
Like EBD, CSC etc, ESC is now part of ABS module. Eventually as the ABS module gets upgraded to new generation, ESC will come standard in most vehicles down the line. |
Agreed completely that it is a costly affair when done individually by the other BHPians, but in case it is done on a company level, the cost comes down significantly. Off course there are a lot of steps and equipment involved, and again, that is the prime motto to have the company on board, rather than going the individual route.
You are right, unless there is demand, there shall be no action. I am hoping to be able to spark the demand, get people talking and asking for the same. Social media is my hope, unless we have someone in here who is secretly powerful enough to make the company change its policy about rear wipers reads this and sees the sense in them!
No harm in trying  |
