Is there anyway to just remove the wiper on our hatches and plug the hole somehow where it goes through? I already have my hatch tinted and don't really want to get a different one.

Geoff, let me know if you want to try a plug. I'm gonna go to University Mazda and get one for myself, because I'd like to try one. They're probably only $5 or so. If they're black it would be a clean look, esp since they are low in the window.

i didnt know plugs were available...All the cars I saw withoug wipers just had a slolid glass hatch with no wiper hole. Also, I noticed at the parts store yesterday you can get add on rear window defroster kits. I think you might be able to make it fix a broken stock one though...

Just remove the assembly and plug the hole. If you can't get the Mazda plug, there are eleventy-dozen different plastic and rubber plugs on the market. Get the one that fits best, put a thin layer of clear silcone sealant between the plug and glass. Voila...!
