just did mine yesterday, hardest bit was getting the motor to drop out the hole, and this was only because i didnt realise how many nuts there were uner the wiper arm, otherwise its a pritty simple job, i got a rubber bung for the hole for 15p from a local car shop too =), i love cheap/free mods

Does it look good? and does the rubber grommit stick out and look silly? lol

it looks okey, tbh the gromit looked a bit odd to start with but it looks okay now, i wasnt keen at first because the wipers arnt centred in corsas so theres just this random gromit on the boot but i like it now ill try and get a pic up tommorow for you, but the best thing about it is its so easy to change back if you change your mind, just dont get carried away and rip all the wiring out!!!, the only downside i have found is i was driving along a gravel track today and i couldnt clear my back window but other then that its a pritty cool mod for how simple and cheap it is to doo

Cheers for that mate!
I see what everyone means when they say it smartens up the back, although, i think id probably want to just fill the hole in and not use a grommit, smooth it out and spray it so it looks like there was never a wiper there to begin with
