ive got a break in the line somewhere, and when i operate it, water pisses down the rear inner wing and down and out thru a rust hole in the boot lol

whats the best way of going about replacing this as the nasty nasty wolfman goes thru the roof lining.

yes either through the floor but if the pipe runs all the way through still then cellotape a new line to it and pull it though eso the new one will be thread through, because u will never be able to feed one through!

poke a long piece of electrical wire down it from the front to the back, then run it through the new piece & tie a knot. then carefully pull it through.

if the old pipe is perished & splitting up, then pulling it may cause it to snap in other places & the wire keeps it all together.

Take it out altogether and stop the risk of water in the rear quarters forever ;)

i was thinkin about it, and ditching the wiper motor too, but i just know if i do that ill end up pulling out the back seats and then itll escalate into madness of weight reduction issues, i wanna try and keep this one as normal as poss for atleast 'some' luxury.
