110 wiper wheelbox seized - how much dash to remove for access?

Jun 24, 2007 2 Replies

Anyone know how much of the dash has to come out to change the wheelboxes, please? I've got the motor out, but can I remove the top of the dash on its own to get the wheelboxes out or has the whole lot got to come out - if so, anyone know roughly in what order do I dismantle things? BTW there's no aircon fitted.



Thanks, Andy Fox

I've just installed a radio kit to a 110, and proud I am too of my 100mm speaker holes. If it helps, I could scan in the page of the instructions about dismantling the dash. I can be reached at ho300 at itsound.demon.co.uk

I have no idea what or where a wheelbox is. I do know that the big screws at the top of the dash were very close to the windscreen, and needed all the bendy screwdrivers to get them out.

Thanks Bill. I have waded in and started taking things apart - with the dash top off and the instrument panel half out I can see the wiper wheelboxes now. Unfortunately the one that has seized is behind the plastic heater vent duct, which is held on by one screw, the head of which is inaccessible without taking the whole instrument cowl out! Still, it's better than having to take the whole dash out...
