Rear Defogger kit - Toyota Yaris Forums

andru47 · 12-29-2008, 04:22 AM

Hey just got a new Yaris and got it cheap and as stock as they come. This means no rear wiper or defogger. I can deal with no rear wiper honestly don't want to drill into the body but, the defogger might come handy. Does anyone know where I can obtain the rear defogger system?

you mind taking a pictures of your back window?

i would love to see a yaris without rear defrost.

i also take that you do not have any buttons in the middle of your COLD/WARM knob?

I have seen one with just clear glass and I must say that it is weird.

andru47 · 12-30-2008, 06:53 PM

Will get pictures asap, but yeah the center button where the defogger is suppose to be is just black with no symbol or button.

i've only seen one car with clear rear window. and it was on a 90 dodge caravan.

it is indeed very weird to see.

lol this bare bones option is also available on the new Mitsu eclipse's no wiper and/or defog is quite odd....

I had a '91 Toyota Tercel that i bought used,it didn't have a rear window defrost.

What a pain when winter came around.

Well I don't know about installing the defoggers, looks complex but well here are the pictures of my Yaris without the defogger or rear wiper as requested.

I have my stock hatch, with the wiper built in still. no glass, but andru, I think you are too far to ship to you. Maybe a salvage yard will let you take a hatch off a Yaris near you. (one that wrecked the front of course!)

Only 4 of the lines in mine work, but thankfully they are at the bottom and heat rises lol.

I honestly prefer how it looks like this. Nice and clean.
Consider tinting the windows, debadging the ass, and blacking out the rear logo.

andru47 · 01-12-2009, 10:02 AM

Yeah I was planning to get some tints soon, as for the debadging, I rather not, it looks simple enough as it is, don't want to make it look any more base than it is hehe.
