Goldie 2 Posted April 11, 2007 Just remove the 4 bolts that support the motor and rotate it until it comes free, it will take a bit of twiddling to get it out. Remeber to disconnect the water pipe and cable tie it to prevent any water getting in the boot... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

praise b the LOweReD 0 Posted April 12, 2007 as for the rear wiper the wheel gave me a head ache so i went to the pub... bit of a drink prob.. yeah me not the C LOL Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scarlet_vr6 0 Posted April 12, 2007 aaahh, sorry I asked :lol: I haven't had it smoothed and I won't either cos I like the idea of being able to put mine back to standard if ever I want to be a bit different! I can send you the grommet you need if you like cos you can only buy a bag of 20 so I have 19 lurking around somewhere.... I had a headache earlier so went to the pub too and I feel much better now (my sig is only half true!) :wink: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
praise b the LOweReD 0 Posted April 12, 2007 yeah that would be great if u wouldnt mind.. ill pay postage ? andy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scarlet_vr6 0 Posted April 12, 2007 yeah that would be great if u wouldnt mind.. ill pay postage ? andy yeah you can paypal me the 26p or whatever it is and I won't send it til the money's cleared :lol: The whole pack is cheap enough but I can't remember which size you need and also where you need to go to get them. Think it was B&Q which was better than whatever the other store was but can't remember for sure, so figured it was easier just to send you one. you'll find on CF that everyone likes to help each other out a bit. I have very little mech knowledge (although I'm learning through friends on here) so I'm sure you'll be able to answer a q of mine sometime in return. It's one of the best things about this forum. Just pm me your details and I'll get it sent over the wkend. Fay Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
