Arrow HOW TO: Modifying Default Rear Wiper Position

I have created this HOWTO video on my channel with my G55 AMG as a guide to changing/resetting the default rear wiper position. Hope this is of use to someone

What circumstances result in this offset position?

Some just came like this from factory...

Wasnt a problem until the high-level brake lights appeared in the mid 90s.

Mine currently seems to be halfway between the two pictures above - a little lower than horizontal but not quite enough to block the brake light.
But it seems an easy fix, so I'll keep it in mind for later if needed!
