I thought it was funny and wondered if this company is selling more than ever now.

we felt pretty lucky to have loaded up on TP at Costco right before the madness. I actually hauled it home in the passenger seat of my 996, since the rest of the car was full of other bull items. I couldn’t see the side view mirror.

I was hoping, optimistically, that the mounting and wiring was already there like some other cars. I was prepared to drill but honestly, Rain-ex is a solid idea. Having wagons for so long, I am just really used to having clear rear glass in the rain. It’s completely ingrained to turn on the rear wiper with the front. I find the defrost to be pretty worthless compared to my Audi.
