S1 . How can I feed the adjuster cable into the bulkhead hole . Is there an easy method or can it be fixed inside under the dashboard.

Thread a length of string through the bulkhead hole from the front , attach it to the knob at the cable end , and then guide the cable end to the hole by pulling the string . And , no, there is no means of positioning it downwards

Thanks yes I had thought of something like that I will give it a go.

Best thing I have found for feeding wiring, tubing etc is wire curtain rod, because it is flexible, you are able to feed it just about anywhere you wish, just tape whatever your using to the wire and away you go! Put a small 2"-ish kink at the end so if it hits an obstruction, you can twist the wire to hopefully clear the obstruction and continue pushing the wire through, then pull through from where ever you want the wiring/tubing to be. Simply and effective and easier than string.

Typical uses:

Up/down 'A & B' pillars.
Through bulheads.
In up/down tailgates.
From rear passenger area along/above wheel arch into boot area.
And many more.

Done, I managed to feed it through the hole (after opening it up) with a very long pair of forceps . I want to try the wipers before the dash goes in but I have not found a motor yet. DL3 or DL3A I know its not correct but will the later round bodied motor fit .
