Help, how do you get this off?

[shoggyraminator]

Need to remove the black cover to get access to the wiper mechanism behind it. There are two bolts (one you can see in the photo) but when removed the cover is still stuck fast. Not sure if I need to remove the yellow bit between the screen and black cover? If so how? I can see what looks like a rivet at one end. Anyway it's piXXing me off and any advice /help will be much appreciated. Cheers.

this is only a guess and i could be wrong but would you not have to gain access from the other side by removing the dash!

remove the wiper nuts that hold the yellow screen trim and at both ends you will find a rivet remove these and then remove the panel,undo the two bolts (as pictured,and then if you look you can see the grommets just above the bolts that are pictured,remove these and behind them are some more bolts these must me taken out completely, 3 in total if memory serves, then the wiper box will come out,hope this helps.

Big Cheers nemasis, had spotted the grommets and removed one but only stuck my fingure in (as you do)and did not spot the hidden bolts. Will try this tomorrow once I'm in a fit state to do so.
