    Plugging up rear wiper hole .

    I remember when people used to fit single wiper conversions you had a plug that you put in one of the holes .

    Want to remove rear wiper and until I can get around to removing the rear spoiler and smoothing both the hole on boot and the hole on the spoiler I want to to a temporary to plug the hole up .

    Anyone know where to get ? and what to use ?
    I canny invest in ya and for that reason , I'm oot .

    Just a rubber grommet will do it, a snug fit will mean it's waterproof.

    Halfords, Motorword and probably motor factors usually sell them in the little red packs or just measure the hole and get one off ebay for probably under £2 posted
