The GeckoWiper fixes the Hyundai Ioniq 5’s missing rear wiper.

The aftermarket upgrade uses a combination of suction and magnets to stick a temporary wiper to the rear window of older Ioniq 5 models lacking one. The GeckoWiper is battery-powered and rechargeable, uses standard OEM blades, and is controlled using a small wireless remote.

It’s available for preorder through Kickstarter at a discount for about $435, with delivery estimated in February 2025.
