I have a leak in the passenger side foot well. I suspect the heater matrix is springing a leak. I have tried to get at it but I can't get the dash off. Does anyone know how to take the whole dash out?

does anyone know a repairer that deals with Soarers that can fix the problem in the Sou}th East side of Melbourne without ripping me off?

Laz,

To get the heater matrix out is a big good, you can contact Sports & Luxury Cars:

Laz, before you go to the effort/expense of fixing the heater, you may want to check a few things. When you say you have a leak in the passenger footwell, can you actually see the water leaking from behind the dash or are you just ending up with wet carpet? If it's the latter, it could be something as simple as the plastic liner/seal on the inside of the door panel is missing. Perhaps if you put up a more descriptive post about the leak there could be suggestions forthcoming that could save you a lot of time/money.

Just my 2c.

Thanks Daniel.

Brenton, I can actually see it leaking from behind the dash so I have discounted the door panel leak and I am certain that it is the heater. I have already started taking the interior out but the dash is a pain to get to. I have hit a dead end. I think I may have found a instructions in the interiors section of the forum.

Cheers guys
