Hyundai i20 Mk1 2008-2014 Rear Wiper Arm Tailgate Hatchback 988151J000
Hyundai i20 Mk1 Rear Wiper Arm
2008-2014 Hatchback
What this part is for
This rear wiper arm sits on the tailgate glass and keeps the rear screen clear in rain, snow and road spray. A worn or damaged rear wiper arm can leave the rear window streaky, patchy or slow to clear, reducing rear visibility and making the car less pleasant and less safe to drive.
The seller listing currently identifies this as a Hyundai i20 Mk1 rear wiper arm for 2008-2014 and shows compatibility across the 2008-2014 Hyundai i20 hatchback petrol range. A current rear wiper arm listing also shows Hyundai part number 988151J000 for the i20 5-door hatchback 2008-2014. citeturn686993view0turn158704search4turn158704search10
Common symptoms of a failing rear wiper arm
- Rear screen not clearing properly or leaving streaks.
- Arm wobbling, lifting or parking in the wrong place.
- Weak wiping pressure against the glass.
- Corrosion, seized movement or visible wear.
- Blade skipping or bouncing across the rear window.
Why replacement matters
A rear wiper that is no longer working as intended can reduce visibility when reversing or driving in poor weather. Hyundai parts catalogues and wiper specialists note that the i20 uses a dedicated rear screen wiper arrangement designed to give clear rear visibility in all weather conditions. citeturn367523search4turn367523search6turn367523search7

Why buy used parts from a specialist seller?
A good used original part can save money versus buying new, while also reducing waste and keeping serviceable parts in circulation.

Used parts can often be the smarter value choice when the right part number and fitment are checked carefully.
This template is designed to help the buyer order the correct part first time, with fitment clarity, cross-reference information, usage guidance and a neat premium presentation that suits eBay search.
