Quick thanks for anyone who's contributed to the Search function on the forum. I've used it a hundred times.
Most recently was struggling to figure out how to remove the little nut holding on the wiper assembly to the dash panel wall. Couldn't for the life of me remember how to take that little bugger out, seemingly impossible to remove with so much in the way. I'm in the front trunk if you haven't figured already. Short wrench, bend a wrench? Couple of quick searches and PRESTO! Up came a thread or two with pictures showing removal of the ashtray can access the correct nut to remove behind the dash. Gotta love it! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) @Root_Werks Can't find it now, I got to it by removing the ashtray and slider (two little Philips screws). I did notice the other day though: I removed the speedometer to replace my dash and through the speedo opening, the 10mm nut was more accessible. |
