you have to pull the cowl (6-7 screws), and unbolt the wiper motor (3 bolts IIRC), and undo the wiper arm linkage (1-2 bolts, and PITA)....

Have fun

How are you getting that you have to go through the dash?

No, the cowl un bolts from under the hood....When you raise the hood, you will see little black screws going around it....And IIRC, theres 2 more on the top. between the wipers, recessed in....
