View Full Version : Question for those of that removed your rear wiper.
Gardiner 08-17-2007, 02:29 AM I have searched this forum for the answer and can not find it. So here goes, what exactly is the plug found at Home Depot or Lowes used for? I go there and try to find the plastic plug, I search all over and the only thing I can find is a metal one used to plug knock out holes in electrical boxes. The guys at Home Depot and Lowes ask me what is the part number or use for the plug and I tell them I have no idea.
Thanks for the help with this.

burstaneurysm 08-17-2007, 02:44 AM I used a 1" metal plug... got it at pepboys. Fits fine, you just need a small bead of silicone along the edge to set it.
Dingo 08-17-2007, 02:55 AM ^^I used the same 1" metal plug. I think it was located in either the plumbing department or in the hardware section with all the bolts and such. Or you can check pep-boys.
Check this thread out. Scroll towards the bottom and there are a few pictures of what were talking about.

swartzautoman 08-17-2007, 01:40 PM i used a plestic plug from lows, it was a few month ago so i can tell you right were it is but i can sell you it was in a pull out drawr type bin like you find the small stuff at radio shack.
the comon use for the metal one is to plug the hole in a kitchen sink that isn't using the sprayer option.

Frosty355 08-17-2007, 04:14 PM I didn't use a plug. I used a camera instead.

That is what I am going to do in a couple of months, just want something cheap until then.

I used a "scamera" instead:

Frosty355 08-17-2007, 06:23 PM The Scamera looks good to me! It almost looks like the real one that I have.
HeathenBrewing's "Scamera"...

I love my camera! It helps out big time because I can't see out the back because of this.

JuPo631 08-17-2007, 08:45 PM yeah i work at lowes here on the island, and all the stores are pretty much the same...look in aisle 13. thats where these plugs should be
NewMexicoxBPhatBoy 08-17-2007, 09:27 PM Where can I find that "scamera" you have on the back of your Box Frosty?? I've been looking for a camera for my wiper hole, but all i have in there for now is a metal plug that i found @ pep boys in the "HELP" section......
NewMexicoxBPhatBoy 08-17-2007, 09:29 PM or sorry, i mean if you know where i can find the "scamera" or also where did u get your "CAMERA" from? like a working , or non working one.. lol
Frosty355 08-17-2007, 10:36 PM I don't know where to find the Scamera. I got my Camera from Monkey Video and I'm pretty happy with how well it works.
HeathenBrewing 08-19-2007, 07:21 PM I don't know where to find the Scamera....
Scamera came from my friends busted garage door...it is just a peephole with a 10mm LED mounted inside that is controlled by the wiper motor on/off swith. I can flash tailgaters with it.
Used a rubber gasket to keep it water tight.
