Anyone ever use it? I am about to shave it off (along with the washer squirter on the roof when I get to it).

I was thinking the same thing chris, I for the peice at the top removed but I keeps the wiper. I have found that the last month it has been a dis-advantage not having it. It can get really hard to see sometimes

I would keep it, I thought about doing the same thing to mine but then I thought about all those times I needed it and I changed my mind, I don’t drive my car in the winter but even in the rain it helps a lot especialy if you ever park your car outside and sometimes in the morning there is like a fine mist on your car and you get in and you can’t see out the window that’s when you will be thankful you have it and not having to get out and do it your self. My opinion Keep the wiper, if you winter drive it keep the spray nozle too if you don’t winter drive it get rid of the nozle on top.

I sure wish mine worked at times.  
I would keep it. My friend saved his and it gave the car a cleaner look but I honestly don’t like the bare look.

Someone on this board is running around with the hatch I shaved the wiper off. Can’t remember what their screen name was, but they left me their rusty black one 😉

I say shave it, and just spray the back glass with Rain X or some kind of rain away wax.

The wiper just looks like such an after thought, and it ruins the lines of the back of the car.

Thanks guys. I"m still undecided but I’ll have to make a cunch time decision tonight.  
I’ve never needed it yet but I feel bad getting rid of a perfectly good feature. Plus I never drive in the winter. Hmmmmmmmm.
