First, thanks for posting even the troubles so that the rest of us can learn. Second, I think you might want more tufts on the car. And last, I can confirm that my 1998 Civic couple shows only a small recirculation bubble on the bottom, middle portion of the rear glass adjacent to the trunk lid. Post the video... it would be interesting too.

See my car's mod & maintenance thread and my electric bicycle's thread for ongoing projects. I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
