Wiper Cowl Removal...

Post by Nallboy »

What's the best way to take my wiper cowl off? I started to pry off those little black things, and I think I broke one... Any help out there?

Carefully take a little flat screwdriver with a very thin edge and slide it between cowl and coverup-plug and pry it open, really hard to describe how to :)

If youre not handy and want to get your cowl of without scratching it, simply drill a small hole right in the middle of each cap then put a screw in it and pull it off :)

I have a CF cowl on the way. I'm taking it off now so I can finish painting my engine bay. I guess this was more just my way of being lazy and putting it off than anything else... :roll:

pry off the caps slowly. they easily bend/break. then just unscrew the screws (wiper arms unbolted make removing the cowl super easy) and there you go.
