Does anyone have the part number for the little lift-up hatch in the scuttle panel, next to the offside windscreen wiper (right hand drive)?

It's one of several pieces that I've found have been damaged at some point and glued on with epoxy (yes, really) Ahhhh Ahhhh on the Younger Mrs S'.s Rasputin (2013 1.2 Pop).

Unless they costs £30 or something.. then I might understand.

Do you mean this part that covers the wiper arm nut?

Lots of these get broken because folks don't know how to remove them.

Just pull straight outwards, away from the screen, and they come off easily. Don't twist it, or you'll likely break it.

On cold days, warming it first with a hair dryer is a wise precaution against brittle plastic.
