Why do people confuse DYI with DIY? "Do It Yourself" = "DIY". Sorry but it's your second post doing it and it was just one of those pet peeves I have.

Also, do a search or go to the FAQ thread stickied up top. It should answer both of your posts questions.

You beat me to it. I never can understand why people say "DYI", it makes no sense. Annoying.

Here's the link, ironically, the title of the thread also has "DYI." By the way, before you click on the link, beware that it is a lot of work to get it done. Good Luck!

Hopefully this will help you out. This on driver side. Passenger same procedure but have to remove airbox held down by two 10mm bolts.

remove windshield washer filler neck



pull the bar clamp towards you to remove the dust cap.



rotate the power cord counter-clockwise



bottom clamp, push in and pull up. top clamp, push in and push down.



and you're done!


oh and make sure the notches line up before securing them.
