Hi everyone!

Not usually the one to join forums etc but I'm so excited about my getting my RCZ! Been reading a lot of posts and you guys seem awesome, can't wait to join the family :dance:

Have a question if someone would be happy to help!

How does the rear window act in heavy rain? I have noticed there is no rear window wiper and just wondered is this a problem in heavy rain?

Regards

Matt (the young newb)

I didn't find it a problem at all, but I have now coated all my windows with several coats of rainX and it clears even quicker now.
Possibly a bit trickier than most to clean the inside, not just because of the double bubble, but also the sharp angle, especially when it meets the parcel shelf.

I have a rear facing dashcam installed, and it records pretty clear video in the rain, although I must admit, the speeds I usually drive at in the Z mean there is rarely anything to see behind me anyway :eusa-think: :auto-car:

Welcome! As DKZ says, I've not noticed any issues with visability but I also rarely look back

Welcome to the forum, Matt. :thumbup:

The rear screen is actually very cleverly designed so the lack of rear wiper is not a big deal. The shape of the glass forces water to run down the centre into the boot channel and away. You won't have a problem with it but that will be the last thing on your mind after you get your new RCZ anyway.
