After 1.5 years of ownership, I figured it might be worthwhile cleaning any haze off of my rear window.
So, today I moved both seats as far forward and down as they will go - but still impossible to get into the space to get even close to the rear window.
Has anybody come up with a way to access the rear window or decided on a tool thatwill do the job? Or are therer just a lot of verts out there with hazy rear windows??
BTW, I am likely just being **** because as far as I can tell the window appears clean.

 

You have to pop out the wind deflector (push down on it then open the clips), but even then, mine gets cleaned rarely. More difficult is vacuuming the area where the roof lives when down.

 

Yes, I have the wind deflector out but still unable to reach the window to clean it.

 

Seems like a pretty easy choice: don't clean it, or fabricate a tool to reach.

 

Thank you kb58

 

I have cleaned mine twice in 6 years. I removed the wind deflector and straddled the transmission tunnel to get at the rear window. Don't know if I could still do it without pulling something. I think I found I could get at it with the top partially down but I don't remember.

Last part about partially down was incorrect, that was my SC430.

 

My tinter had no problem and granted it is tight I can get to it myself.

 

I don't have one of these, but it kinda makes sense:

Problem solved!!
My 5ft tall wife was able to squeeze into the space behind the seats.
I'd forgotten how well she was able to fit into very small spaces on our boat.
Using a 3 inch paint brush wrapped in cloth she was able to reach the entire rear window.
For those who do not have a 5ft tall wife, a small child would likely work!!
As they say "done and dusted" for at least another year.

 

I’m going to try a swifter with a lot of cleaning spray on it. Don’t have a diminutive wife! Anyone have a toddler I can borrow?

 

Don't you just let one out of the trunk?

 

I have a similar tool from Invisable Glass

 

I have the same one. It works perfectly.

 

I went to a car repair shop to clean it
