Wipers seized the other day in the rain and sure enough the issue was clogged wiper boxes/cable.
I’ve pulled the dash apart and removed the wiper motor + cable.
Im having lots of trouble removing the wiper boxes. I go to pull them through and there’s still about 20mm left of spindle to come through with no give. I have no idea what I can remove to pull them through. I’ve read about people using crow bars to bend the frame but I’d rather not do that… any tips would be greatly appreciated.
I will attach a couple photos.

from what I see you havent removed enough of the dash, keep going.
TD5 and older defenders had little thought on how to remove parts after it had been built.
