Took my day off today, so I have chance to do it :smile:

First time done this, my 197 is near 4yr old.

Took cover off on the wipers and mark it for right place to put it back on later.

Looking swish giles. When I fitted the upper brace I took the opportunity to sort this issue although mine isn't as in depth clean as yours. Just in blocked etc lol.
 
Giles your post has made me concerned now as i always find leaves and twigs trapped down there! How exactly am i able to remove the cover in order to access it for cleaning, is there a guide perhaps that explains where the clips/bolts are located?
