I didn't have them tinted

I actually replaced the glass from a JDM car.

Actually it was cheaper to do than having the windows tinted.

And it MY car and I will do what I want to it.

Purely done because I wanted too and I could .... Simples

If you don't agree... Tough

I don't recall ever wishing I had a rear wiper on my UK gc8, and that's coming from a previous several hatch backs, however I have found myself using the one on my JDM newage once or thrice.

Sounds like you got a great deal on the glass mate, and way better than tint film on the frameless windows, hope the rear screen is water tight, if so jobsAgooden
