took the clocks out and still couldnt see it, so the took the clock tray surround out, no working room whatsoever, has small socket on it turning at 5mm a time, 4, 1" long screws, took forever, got that out and still couldnt see it,

so i thought id take top of dash off, really hoping this worked otherwise it would have to be the lot off,

 

screws to get top dash off were a nightmare, i put them in when windscreen was forward so it was easy, now not so much

not quite sure ....you will have to check...your wipers might be one inch too long....go for the next size down.... :hmm:

so, bled all the brakes again with a power brake bleeder, not had chance to test them yet as i need the trade plates off my brother, wired interior light in, now there is a problem with the hi-low gear leaver, seems like it might be bent a bit as its not really going far enough forward and is jumping in to neutral, need to take it off tomorrow and sort it out, if it aint one thing its another :hmm::hmm:
