Anyone Remove the Passenger Wiper?

why would you get a ticket or get sued? I could see if you were running without them when it was raining.

though there is usually a low pressure zone at the cowl on most cars, I would assume that the low pressure zone on the yaris is much smaller given the short hood and the slope of the front. that would mean that the advantage of lessening the drag at that point would be greater than on other cars. admittidly it is a small advantage but it is still an advantage. everything makes a difference. nothing makes ZERO difference. sometimes it's good sometimes it's bad.

fluid dynamics is an awesome field.

Actually, the base of the windshield is a high pressure zone. Thus, the cowl induction hood scoops.

To OP: if ultimate aerodynamics is your goal, not only can you remove the passenger side wiper, but how about resetting the actuator arm to make the driver side "rest" in the up position along the A-pillar...

I stand corrected.

I did this for years until the GF complained about it

The mod is so simple, just unbolt the idler arms from the motor and turn 180, then re attach.
