Re: Re: Marts lude - De-Wipered

Post by mart609 » Thu Apr 12, 2012 5:05 pm

Been thinking of de-wipering the rear of the lude for a while. But I lost the bung I bought for it. Well while stripping the tracklude I came across the bung in the glovebox :D

It's pretty easy but thought I'd just do a write-up on it anyway.

You will need one of these. A Bung

Image

Firstly, remove the cap covering the nut by lifting from the back so you unhook it. It might be a bit stiff so may need to use a screwdriver or something to prize it loose.

Image

This reveals the nut (12mm i think) Remove

Image

This releases the wiper arm so remove that. and you are left like this

Image

Remove the rubber cover to reveal the 23mm nut and remove that too.

Image

Then open the boot and locate the motor underneath. Disconnect the plug

Image

Then remove the Three 10mm bolts and the motor will come away

Image
Image

Then remove the rubber gromet from the window here

Image
Image

That's it all removed. Just clean up the glass and add a small amount of sealant to the bung and fit!

Image

Wider shot (Ignore the completely filthy car :oops: )
