S, good news is this mod can be done utilizing your existing hardware! Just unbolt the rear wiper motor and there will be a grommet remaining on the windshield, take it out and flip it around, then just trim the extra rubber off the grommet until it resembles a "plug" (you'll know what I mean when you do this), once you've fitted your new plug snugly into the hole, the black plastic cap that covers the bolt for the wiper arm is placed on top of your new "plug", and voila! (the rubber grommet is 3 bucks from BMW if you ever need to reinstall the rear wiper)

I also ordered this cap from this website to make an even cleaner install, it was a free sample so I will see how it does, but it looks like a great cap to plug the hole, should be even cleaner than it looks now! Caplugs - Button Plugs with Flush-Type Heads - Caplugs
