Guest dwhiteside64 Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 Hi guys,I want to remove the windshield wiper solvent bottle and clean it. While it looks like just 3 screws hold it on, I was wondering if the holes are threaded or are there retaining nuts holding it on from the back?I know, sounds like a stupid question, but I didn't want to start loosening the screws and find out that there are back nuts that are spinning along with the screw!Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Cannon Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 No nuts. They are sheetmetal screws.Go for it!Don't over-tighten when reinstalling or you will strip the holes out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
