Morning everyone.

Would any body know how you remove the rear spoiler thingy that covers the top of the rear window, would like to remove it to replace wiper arm and blade plus sort out a bit of lacquer peel. Can't get onto Rave at the moment any pointers much appreciated.

Don't think you need to remove it. I know it is tight but can you not get to the nut? You might need some Plusgas to loosen the wiper arm up and allow it to hinge properly. Usually I just unblip the blade without replacing the arm. Turn rear wash-wipe on and then either turn the ignition off or open the boot as the arm reaches the vertical. You then should be able to get a grip on it to pull it about.

to rplace rear wiper blade turn on rear wiper and then when half wayacross its sweep open the tailgate it will stop the wiper where it is and you can change the blade easily.

No need to remove it, wiper arm and blade can be replaced easily. Slide nut cover back and remove it undo nut remove wiper arm.

Thanks for your replays, I was looking to remove the panel so I could sort a little bit of lacquer peel on it, think it would be easier rather than attempt it in situ.
