Ok so my system makes my rear windsheild wiper vibrate and it ____es me off lol. How can I fix this? If I go dynamat crazy in the trunk will it help?

HELP MEEEE... ^_^

Atm I do not have a sub running, so I can give a 100% answer on the xB.

My first question, however, would be which parts are rattling/vibrating? Is it the actual motor making noise within the mount? If so, it is possible that sound deadening and sound absorbing mats would help. However, I am betting it is the actual wiper blade, and in that case doubt deadening will have much of an effect.

I hope others with real experience will post, since I will be dealing with this in the near future.

Though I suspect the most common (and probably right) answer will be 'remove the wiper/etc) (;

it happens to me also a got two 12 and went i crank it
it start to vibrate so you got three options
1-ignore it
2- take the wiper arm out
3-get used to it
i went with number 3 since is the easy one

For me the e-dead helped.... but not enough. Most of the ratteling came from the actual arm and blade. I did the same as FatBox. Guess what... It dosen't rattle anymore!

There's pretty much only one way to keep it from rattling against the rear window and that's to remove it...

I dynomat'd the rear and it helped a lot, but it won't get rid of the rattle. A temporary solution is to wet a paper towel and stick it in the joint where the wiper insert and arm and the main arm meet. I've been thinking about using that insulation foam but haven't gotten a chance. Otherwise listen to what the other guys have said.

All it does is push dirt around your window anyway I've had mine off for a year and never needed it in a rainstorm or for anything else (and I live in FL, haha)... so IMO it really doesn't need to be there.

Remove it! Get rid of it! It's good for nothing! Go to Home Depot and ask where the plugs are for sink holes for where faucets used to be. They'll give you something that looks like this.




They have them in white, black, chrome, and stainless. It costs like $2.00. Or if you really want to do it right, take it to a paint shop and they'll shave it for around $200. I just plugged mine and now I don't rattle.

I got rid of all my rattles except for the wiper by stuffing insulation in there, yes the pink stuff. Works great. Unfortunately the hatch still moves enough for the wiper to rattle some but not as bad. I took mine off too.

take it off, the dyno mat won't help if your hit'n
