Not sure where to put this, i thought i would put it in electrical since one of them is kinda releated to it. Okay so my car 76 taunus tc2/mk4 cortina is back from rust repair and repaint and they disassembled pretty much entire dash in that process but they did a meh job on the assembly. I got couple of issues, firstly the interior mirror sheared off somehow from its base. The actual attachment point is still in that headliner area but the mirror itself sheared off. How can i remove the rest of the mirror assembly from that headliner area? There is this plastic thing here in picture below, is it holding in the headliner? Would removing that ruin my headliner? Im really scared to touch the headliner so i dont want to mess with it. After that plastic piece is removed, how can i remove the rest of the mirror is it just screwed or bolted on there? Secondly the fan speed lever doesnt really move to 3rd position for full speed. It does if i force it to and engages 3rd speed but the moment i let my finger off from pushing it it snaps back and drops down to 2nd speed again. It wasnt like this before it would just stay on the 3rd level now it just snaps back into second. The first speed also feels like its engaging later than it should. How can i fix this issue? Thirdly the gauge cluster lights dont work, they were very dim anyway which im guessing the contacts corroded because thats where water was leaking in through. I guess i need to remove the cluster and the heater and blower control panel. The german taunus workshop manual shows that i ll need to first remove the plastic trim on the dash but the gauge cluster brightness adjustment rheostat thing is also in the way and the manual doesnt show how exactly i can remove that. Do i just pull on it hard to remove that knob? Or do i use some sort of plastic trim removal tool to push it from behind where it sits. Do i also need to remove the radio to be able to remove the hvac control panel? In the workshop manual the radio is removed in the pictures before they removed the hvac control panel so i thought i would ask that too. After removing the hvac control panel, how could i fix that fan speed issue with it snapping back. Here is a video below that i uploaded to imgur which shows what i mean by it snapping back Thanks a lot in advance https://imgur.com/2Xm3UMW Edit: If the links i attached dont show up as pictures, they can be seen in this imgur link where i uploaded all of them Imgur: The magic of the Internet

Hi I stumped !!!!! ( or reached my level of understanding) I have a Mk1 Airflow ( import) with a 711m 16 crossflow and I'm working though it. Effectively the heater is on all the time and no heater valve is installed. The attached picture should show what I have but clearly does not show what is missing@@@@ The return pipe from the heater deadheads into the inlet manifold ( for twin choke) but I'm lost as to how that circulates and where the line should go to I can put an inline heater valve in the supply line but don't think that all that needs done
