Yes, First step is to pull the plastic housing off the wiper arm base and remove the 13mm nut.

Rob, Thanks for posting the DIY. It made an easy job, real easy. I finally got around to ordering the plugs and got them today, and was done 15 minutes later! Thanks.

This is a no brainer mod and stops the flutter of the annoying wiper
above 160...

Yes the wife is hot, (Wyatt's) and anyone who dances on a diving board is OK by me!

finally done this as well, as GT2 doesn't have rear wiper why does TT need one especially without an accompanying water jet ? oh if only they made a Tiptronic GT2 but then I would have probably been in the bushes long ago !
