advice on keeping the lower back window clean in winter?

I applied Rain-X. It's better than nothing.

 

Me too. It's about as much as you can do.

 

I know what you mean -- mine was almost impossible to see through after driving through Benton Harbor, MI, the evening of 1/1/10. hwell: At least the car performed admirably, given the road conditions.

 

Hey Chris, did you have your rear defogger on? that does not happen on mine. The rain x is sort of a standard thing but the rear defogger work super.

 

I use Zaino, although I don't know how it compares to Rain-X. It doesn't rain much around where I live though.

 

Huh? Backing is the only thing I had used it for... prior to the rear-camera. Sitting mostly below the top of the seats, the view is below the field-of-view for traffic.

What do you use it for other than seeing exactly how close a tailgater is?
.

 

Clean it every time you fill up. That's what I do. I don't have any other solution.

You don't have to do a great job. Just dump the window cleaner, supplied by the station all over it. Then squeegie out what you can. It does not look good but it is better than seeing nothing.

 

Me three! Rain X has worked well for me this winter.
