For the rear hatch you can use one from an 06 to an 11 on your 09. Unfortunately the one that I had sold (and for cheap, as I kept dropping the price on ebay).

I haven't looked closely at a base one to see if the wiring is present for the rear wiper, but I would not doubt that it would be. You would also need the wiper stalk with the rear wiper switch on it. To use the rear washer you would need to change the wiper fluid reservoir to the one with two pumps and add the tubing that runs from there to the hatch.

Wow I did not expect that the rear wiper used the front fluid bottle for the washer. I expected there to be a washer bottle somewhere in the rear of the car. Probably more hassle than I want to get into..

My VW Scirocco was like that, with an extra reservoir inside the trunk.
