    Found out the hard way...after 10 trips through the auto chamois type wash that you should not take your prius through these. It grabbed the rear wiper and torn it completely off , luckily it didnt shatter the rear window like it easily could have. :(

    Anyhow, if someone has one on a wrecked car or one they took off for whatever reason shoot me a message please with pricing.

    Thanks!

    Duct tape it to the rear window. Wash, rinse, repeat.

    While your info is extremely helpful and insightful I will pass. All of the parts were broken to bits and none were salvageable.

    Sorry to hear that. Maybe for the next time.

    Perhaps it's the litigious northeast, but none of the "non-touchless" places around here will let a car go through without first removing antennae and taping rear wiper arms.

    My apologies man, I misread what you were saying lol... Thought you were being smart assed lol. I see what you are saying and good idea for future washes. I did remove the antenna as I always do.

    Take care!

    Several priuschat.com members have done the rear wiper delete mod. Maybe one will be willing to part with theirs.

    One secret on ebay: You do not buy what you want, you buy what they are selling. I frequently buy whole laptops to get the LCD screen out of it. It is cheaper than the screen alone. I bet that those ebay wiper motors that include the part you need are cheaper than JUST the part you need at your Toyota dealer. (if it is even available)

    Just a thought.
