Replace windscreen scuttle panel

Post by char »

hi guys

I have a split in the passenger side windscreen scuttle panel. I had a look and I couldn't see any obvious screws or fixings that hold it in place, it just seems to be pressed into the rubber strip and up to the bottom of the windscreen, is it simple to replace or when I pull the old one out I'll find I need some glue or similar?

Thanks

You've probably done it by now, but if not, it i easy, it just clips in place.

Hi, thanks for the reply. Yes I managed to change it ok, got a replacement part from ebay which came from Latvia and was brand new. The two sides just slide across and then it popped off. Fortunately it was the passenger side that I needed to replace so I didn't have to worry about the wipers. :clap:

sorry for bringing up this old thread. I am tryin to replace a gateway, which requires removal of the scutter panel. I was trying to pull up however i ruined the clip lock. Any idea how I should remove this scutter panel. I have driver side removed, but not the passenger side

I hope you mean ECU, otherwise you are looking in the wrong location.

I am actually trying to install 5f gateway, driver side is more than sufficient. The reason I want to remove passenger side as i might as well replace both side so it will be both new and keep the existing one as spare
