Removal
1. Disconnect the battery negative terminal (refer to "Disconnecting the battery").
2. On left-hand drive models, operate the wipers and switch off the ignition when the wiper arms are near the top of their arc of movement. This is necessary to position the wiper linkage to enable the motor/linkage assembly to pass out of the scuttle.
3. Remove the windscreen wiper arms as described in Section 15.
4. Open the bonnet.
5. Remove the securing screw and the two nuts and withdraw the windscreen cowl panel from the scuttle. Note that the panel is clipped around the edge of the windscreen and the front wings (see illustrations).

12. If desired, the assembly mounting rubbers can be renewed. To renew a mounting rubber, pull the mounting sleeve (and the washer, where applicable) from the rubber, then prise the rubber from the mounting bracket (see illustration). Fit the new rubber using a reversal of removal procedure.

Refitting
13. Refitting is a reversal of removal, bearing in mind the following points:
- a) On left-hand drive models, ensure that the wiper linkage is positioned as during removal - see paragraph 2.
- b) Ensure that the spacer block is correctly positioned between the scuttle and wiper linkage, as noted before removal.
- c) On right-hand drive models, ensure that the plastic cover panel is correctly positioned on the scuttle.
- d) Ensure that the windscreen cowl panel is correctly engaged with the windscreen and the wing panels. Where applicable, ensure that the wiper spindle grommet is correctly located in the panel.
- e) Refit the windscreen wiper arms as described in Section 15.
