Just got done doing my antena and wiper, if your gonna do it right you need to weld a piece of metal in the hole, i used washers, grind them down, then light weight body filler, then block and prime.

Hey, was that quick and easy? I don't know how to weld. But I want to take off my rear wing and rear wiper. Then sell the wing until I can afford the expensive ass one I want. Which I won't get til maybe the end of this year. What would I need to do it myself? Or should I let someone else do it? -------------------- 91 MR2 Turbo SW20, 92 MR2 Turbo SW20, 95 Celica GT ST204
