Hi all , went to start the car this morning found a water leak it seems to be cracked on the hard plastic piece on this top hose this there an easy way to remove it or do you have to remove most of the front bumper to do it. Many thanks Tony

Are you sure you've got a leak? Are you sure it's not just condensate from the air conditioning?

Apparently the Rad can be removed with the bumper still on the car

I'm sifting through some files to see if I can find a better angle it looks like 71 is a screw for the hose carrier which may be accessible according to the build diagrams below but I'm thinking that bolt/screw is removable from the inside top under the scuttle tray
