Steering cowl thing

Post by jaylee » Tue Apr 15, 2008 5:48 pm

Hi,
How do i remove the cowl thing that surrounds the wiper/indicator stalks?
I have removed two screws from underneath & a third in the recess to the left of the steering height adjustment.. but it doesnt come apart..
Is it possible to access the ignition switch & indicator wires easily once the cowl is removed?

Cheers.

Cheers for that Brorabongo.. :D
I'm in the process of wiring an immobiliser alarm.
Once thas done i will be adding remote locking & window closers if they are left open..
I might even see if i can get the blinds to come down too! :shock:

Good luck with your plans, jaylee.

I'm thinking about adding remote locking this year, I hear its not that hard to fit. 8-[

All the best.

Cheers Brorabongo,
By all accounts, it's not to fit remote central locking.. but it is a tight space to work in!
I'm lucky in the respect i've been blessed with girlie hands & nimble fingers. :D

I managed to get the cowl off & patched some of the appropriate wires in before it got too dark.
I should have the alarm sorted tomorrow.. then on with the locking & closers which tie in with the system.
