Got a new rear wiper blade to fit. Simple question, how the do I get the arm to stop 'mid rear window' so I can replace it? Turning off the ignition doesn't work as it always returns back up underneath the spoiler!  SDV8 AB MY 2019

If its like a P38 Range Rover, set the wiper on and go to the back door. When the wiper is halfway down the screen, open the top tailgate, it should stop where it is, then you can change the blade.

Thanks Steve, worked a treat.

Eugene, set the rear wiper going and press the open boot button when it is midway through the sweep. Don't use the remote boot opener as it won't work while the wiper is wiping! SDV8 AB MY 2019

I did it the hard way and took the roof spoiler off...

However, it did give me chance to clean out any grime underneath it, so not all bad.
