you remember him? I dunno, but he wasn't very favored around here. Some pretty bad quality issues with his parts. I bought his front grille and it had bad fitment issues. The rear panel was decent enough.

If you want to remove the wiper then pop the plastic cover piece off the end of the wiper. Remove one nut and the wiper slide right off.For the motor you've to remove the plastic cover panel on the hatch to unbolt the motor.

my iKONA front grille was a piece of shit too.

step1: resell shitty painted products
step3: ????
step4: PROFIT!

f**k iKONA

to the OP
i removed my rear wiper before getting my plates, it's seriously useless in soCAL. it only caught dust. i had to remove the wiper+motor like fitting said.

I just installed a carbon fiber garnish by Seibon. The fit is great but the bolts didn't line up very well to the pre-existing holes so I had to Dremel some metal off to get the bolts in. It rarely rains here in Arizona but it figures that right after I took off the rear wiper a huge storm rolled through and I kind of wished I had the wiper back. I may just Dremel a hole through the carbon fiber and put the wiper assembly back on.
