Damn electrical things. Why did it decide to fry itself! I hope I havent caused a short when I moved my passenger carpet a bit because the first time I smelt burning was when I did that.......hopefully just a coincedence. Anyway, the passenger one looks fine but I`ll replace anyway.

All I need now is a new foglight bulb and my passenger side central locking sorted out. Damn electrical things, I swear if any more non-essential leccy thing goes wrong im gonig to strip the lot out(and save weight too 8-). Actually its not that bad, just feel like a moan - ha haha


....Twist anti-clockwise from above (ie bonnet side) then push out from underneath.....Voila!

Good luck mate

How the heck? Trying to do a few little things myself today. Dont have many tools but dont want to take it to dealer.

Anyway most things are okay. But now im working on a windscreen washer (need to replace it because for some reason it fried itself!). I cant believe how hard little fu**ing things can be on cars!!!!

I have heated nozzles. I have removed the top part of the hood cover(underneath). I have disconnected the water pipe from the nozzle and disconnected the wires. Now I guess the nozzle pulls through the outside of the hood right? It looks like it would BUT there is some poxy clip underneath. Ive tried jamming something up against the clip so that it closes tight to the nozzle but I havent got enough arms to pull or push it through at the same time. Arrrgh. Any easy way to do this or do I need to become a spider?
I thought about trying to break the clip off of the nozzle itself so it`ll pull through but I dont even have any tools to get in there to try that.

Darren M (hot and frustrated)
