Default Who's the guy selling the rear wiper plugs?

Is anyone still selling color-matched rear wiper plugs on here? I remember seeing something about a guy making them and selling 'em for $15.

Any idea what I'm talking about?

You can do the "toilet" mod from Home Depot.

hahaha...it's not a "toilet" plug... It's actually a drain hole plug. Like TECH said, you can pick one up from Lowes or Home Depot for about $3 - $5. Just get some touch up paint from the dealer, paint the plug, and you're good to go!!! Just did mine a couple of weeks ago...super easy and looks sooooooo much better. And if you're a serious weight reducer, it removes a couple of pounds from the car too!

if you want the really really thin plug that is a great color match, go to this guy, it was like under 20 bucks for both plugs, and they look 10 times better than any of the other stuff I have seen people use.

spiralfunk is his name.

They are so effective that at a glance people will really think you had it shaved at a body shop. And even if you did have it shaved at a body shop you still need a black plug to cover the hole in the glass.

Pair (1 your oem color and 1 Black): $20.00
1 oem color: $17.00
1 black: $5.00

Check the bottom of this thread.

The plug is smaller than the one I made. I know mine is water tight but have not heard from others if his is as good. His email is bobbyprice6@hotmail.com

his plugs just require that you silicone up good, the underside of the plug is not a tight fit. I have had no leakage though.
