Default Rear wiper

Anybody in here have a problem with the rear wiper on a xB falling off? It started with the blade then the plastic now it's starting to scratch up my window........ Does anybody know of a way to take it off? Maybe have something to fill the hole?

I have 2 15" L7 Solobarics.... I'm guessing that is the problem.

DUDE... OMG

A 40Hz wave is like 20feet long... you are going a lot lower than that. Extreme sound pressures and vibrations cause problems.

i went to a scion meet in orlando not to long ago and a guy there installed a back up camera in the hole ran the wires under the carpet and hooked it to a tv that was in the front driver side visor it was pretty cool but im sure it was pretty expensive.

im running 6 12s so i had to take mine off.

pop off the plastic cover at the pivot of the wiper. removed the 10mm nut. buy a plug from home depot, buy a cover from randode, or put a scion fist antenna ball on there.

Thanks for all the posts, the antenna ball sounds like a good idea. Thanks again.

Not sure what you mean, or even what a wave is but if you mean it is loud... Yea it's pretty freakin loud. It vibrates so much that my front wipers are leaving marks on my front windshield.
