Yup... been there... done that!!

However, I also took out the windsheild and it pushed the wiper stud deep into the fire wall. It really bent the $&*^ out of things. It was repaired, but you can still see the damage. The cowl does not line up with the fenders and I can't get a wiper arm back on the stud.
I have some friends who think they can fix it, but they can't promise not to break the windsheild again...
