The best way to tell is to take the scuttle panel off and have a look for yourself. It also gives you a good chance to clear the drain points as they clog up with leaves and block.

The top mounts go like this:
Old

New

It should be fairly obvious once you've got the cover off.

No worries, I was in the same position not long ago and it took me ages to find pictures of them.

Does the scuttle panel just clip off mate?

Pretty sure it was other than unbolting the wiper blades arms. There’s a rubber seal to pull off and then the rest is plastic clips.

Oh deep joy. Hope the wiper arms unbolt easier than the ones on my 182.

Cheers geezer.
