Explorer ST HSF Rear Wiper Delete Install

Alright here it is my new product for the Explorer people I’d like to start off by thanking Justin Miller for helping produce these parts and Richard Haltom for sharing all the measurements. This is a super simple and easy install takes less than 20 minutes, I would recommend adding some water proof black silicone just for added strength and weather protection. Thank y’all for all the continued support I’m working on much more 😁 link to get yours👇

Looks good! Made a big difference! Very nice and clean looking

[@HoustonSpeedFreaks]

[@OhThatsJustGoob]

Great job bro. On both design and install video!!!

[@HoustonSpeedFreaks]

I appreciate it brother 😁🙏❤️

[@alexarredondo805]

Ya I’ll take one

[@HoustonSpeedFreaks]

Link is in the description to my website 😁

[@Venomhatch2]

Also, I’m kind of curious because I feel like you could just kind of push that in. Is there any type of brace that someone can make to stop it from pushing in that would sit behind the trim cover

[@HoustonSpeedFreaks]

That’s why I recommend using a small amount of black silicone, you couldn’t accidentally push it in you would definitely have to do it on purpose

[@nypigskin]

My thought would be to over lap it with a larger piece of 2” 3M VHB tape if you feel it might be an issue. The double layer should hold pretty well.

Keep up the ford explorer videos!!!

[@HoustonSpeedFreaks]

Just dropped another one 😁💪

[@obamaboi08]

Looks sickkkkk

[@HoustonSpeedFreaks]

I appreciate it 🙏❤️

[@wranglerextreme]

You can always throw a small piece of paint protection film over the area. Maybe trace out over a coke can and use that size

[@HoustonSpeedFreaks]

On the backside absolutely 😁

[@osok1220]

Is this ever coming back in-stock?

[@HoustonSpeedFreaks]

Yes I’ll have more ready on Thursday 😁

[@Venomhatch2]

Just being curious, why do people want to delete the rear wiper?

[@HoustonSpeedFreaks]

It’s mostly for aesthetics honestly as it helps make the rear end look much cleaner.

[@nypigskin]

Why do people drive down the road with their rear wiper on when it’s not raining? The switch is easy to bump into and the wiper goes on. I wish they put a momentary switch in instead. Push the button, it wipes and shuts off. No more dry wiping.

[@bryanjackson125]

Nice ! willl this work on a 2017 explorer xlt ?

[@HoustonSpeedFreaks]

Haven’t had anyone try it yet but I feel like it’s the same size

[@bridgerlaub7862]

How does it hold up to pressure washing with just the 3m tape?

[@HoustonSpeedFreaks]

It holds up fine with pressure washers 😁

[@0sir1sBaez]

sorry to bother if you have answered this question many times, when will they be in stock again? thank you!

[@HoustonSpeedFreaks]

No you’re all good I’ll have more back in stock in a week or so waiting on supplies to arrive 😁

[@0sir1sBaez]

[@KnightsGarage]

I ordered this a couple days ago. Do you not give shipping information?

[@HoustonSpeedFreaks]

Hey, I do give shipping info you should have got an email. These were a pre-order item where I was waiting on one more thing to come in. All orders went out today. Send me a message on Facebook and I’ll get you all your shipping info 😁

[@andrewhb531]

STILL waiting on mine to ship??? Got my LEDs today.

[@HoustonSpeedFreaks]

Did you not get my email? I sent an email. Plugs were pre order, I was waiting on one part to finish them all which I got today all plug orders are going out tomorrow 😁

[@rino8088]

What kind of silicone would you recommend? Silicone sealant or silicone adhesive?

[@HoustonSpeedFreaks]

Silicone sealant 😁

[@locknnload]

Why would you want to delete a safety item? Other than looks ?

[@HoustonSpeedFreaks]

Most people don’t use their rear wipers, and as stated I know this mod isn’t for everyone. I wouldn’t even call it a safety item. You use rainx or get your rear glass ceramic coated you didn’t even need a wiper. But to answer your question it’s 95% for looks

[@chebrneck]

I guarantee you get caught in a hard storm and no coating on the window is going to help you see out the back. I would also bet that over time the rubber sticker will become compromised from the elements and there will be a leak. Also, someone comes up to your car and pushes on it you're also eff'd. Just a bad design overall.

[@STFL56]

​@@chebrneck the guy that pushes on it to cause damage would be the same guy that'll break off the wiper arm because they're worthless humans. It's a 1:1,000 chance that it happens. There's always an a-hole somewhere. Can always pop a decal over it to hide the "button" and add a little more waterproofing. If a storm is so bad that a coating isn't helping that little wiper arm isn't doing much, either. I live in Florida with monsoon storms and rarely use the rear wiper. The 11" wiper blade doesn't provide much clearing anyways. Water rolls right off the ceramic coating without issue, even in heavy rain.

[@chebrneck]

@@STFL56 except your kid who saw you put it in will go up and push on it because that looks like fun.

[@STFL56]

@@chebrneck good thing I don't have kids. 😂

[@HoustonSpeedFreaks]

Imagine 🤣🤣🤣

[@andrewhb531]

​@@HoustonSpeedFreaks I'm trying to install this plug. The exposed portion of your product has a brown cover over it... It isn't peeling off, and I don't want to damage the portion that's visible outside. What the heck is up with this thing?? REPLY TO ME ASAP as the vehicle is taken apart.

[@HoustonSpeedFreaks]

You peel it off it’s a protective cover for the acrylic

[@andrewhb531]

@@HoustonSpeedFreaks Shit. It ain't coming off.. Nervous about damage
