rear hatch

[alwaysFlOoReD]

I have all three types of b-ii hatches and a 91 exploder. the expo glass won't swap but I was eyeing up the windshield wiper portion and think it may swap over fairly easy to the opening window hatch. It would take some work to make the b-ii wiper swap over to the b-ii opening window hatch, as in trying to figure out a landing for the wiper so it isn't in the way of opening the window.
I haven't actually looked at how the window is mounted in the b-ii hatch but I'm sure you could easily swap the parts from a opening window hatch to the non. Copykat mentioned having to drill holes....it can't be that hard [famous last words?]

The Eddie Bauer had rear wipers and defroster and spray thingy but no opening glass

Yep. And the wiper sits on the glass when in the off position, making it real hard to swap in an opening window. You might be able to swap the other way if you lower the pivot point and build a landing ramp

Were Bii's ever offered with a rear window on a motor that rolls down into the hatch...? Id love to be able to roll it down when on the trails, it gets warm sometimes...

OK, I may just stick with that route, in the winter the rear window gets covered in road spray really bad from slush and snow, so trying to get a rear wiper installed and possibly the rear defogger as well. May just stick with a solid back window LOL.
