    Default ? for those with barn doors

    How the h*ll do you see out your rear windows in the rain/snow? After driving only a couple miles in the snow storm yesterday, I couldn't see sh!t and had to stop at the gas station to clean them. I've done this three times now in only about 10 miles worth of driving in the snow/slush. Will mud guards help this?

    Oh, believe me, the rear defrost was on constantly. Damn thing kept wanting to turn its self off after a few minutes. Anyway to over ride that?

    I think I'm going to get a pair of mud flaps, you know the type that hang down and have a naked lady on them?

    Well except for the two windows meeting the middle thats the only problem I have, not familiar with that Snow business anymore, I moved, sorry! You can not over ride the RWD, I tried in the 86 Camaro I had in Ohio, just keep switching it on, been there with the snow issue build up, it sucks....

    Oh, I hear you on the not being able to see out of the middle where the doors meet. I'm still trying to get used to that.

    My favorite kind of flaps. I put that girl on all of my DIY camo paint jobs, duck blinds, rifle custom paint, anything.

    Spray those babies with some Rain-x. The water won't stay on them, nothing to grip and that mshould take the road schmutz too.

    Good suggestion! THanks!

    I can't find anywhere locally that sells the naked lady mud flaps. Maybe I'll just have to get some with the bow tie on it.
