Replacing plastic scuttle trim under wipers on 996

[NBTBRV8]

My plastic scuttle trim under the wipers has faded (no I'm not in the UK!), so I have bought a new one. Has anyone had any experience in replacing these, can you do it without pulling the bonnet off?

Thanks.

Nope, it is faded plastic and they are cheap enough to buy anyway.

easy enough to do with the bonnet still in place though it does require a bit of wiggling and some work with the bonnet closed and some open. remove the plastic trim trays inside the bonnet (battery and two side pieces) then just pop off both wiper arms and undo the three screws (one in the middle hidden by wiper arm, and two at the front of the scuttle panel.
disconnect the water hose for the windscreen washers (careful not to lose the plastic filter piece thats up inside the part that remains attached to the scuttle) then just lift it up and out towards the windscreen.
you need to bend it wiggle it a bit so if you have a spare helper it will make it easier though i managed fine by myself.

as haynes would say..... refit is a reversal of removal.

Thanks, I also bought the seal which the parts list recommended. I presume it isn't glued/bonded in any way?The two at the front of the panel are these the ones under the covers on the outer corners?
