Title: Remove wiper scuttle
Post by: Jimbob on 27 September 2010, 11:04:12
Pre facelift model only.

Removing the scuttle last time I did this I removed the wiper arms using a 13mm socket and on the left hand side of the engine bay the plastic scuttle is screwed down undo this star type screw.

Remove the rubber that runs across the front edge of the scuttle.

Then you have the a couple of clips holding the front part of the scuttle on the passenger side I removed these.

The rubber at the bottom of the screen you need to lift this in 8 places, the long part of the scuttle is clipped in place with 5 clips which are twist release and the smaller scuttle passenger side section uses 3 clips.
(From memory so might not be 100% accurate)

Just lift both sections out one at a time, refitting can be tricky i did the long scuttle section 1st then the smaller section. Can be awkward as you need to get the scuttle edge under the rubber before clipping it back in place.
