covers  the hoses and heater core, but were unable to remove the plastic cover
completely. This allowed the plastic cover to tilt forward, but can not be
removed.  Is there a process to remove the plastic shroud without  removing
the rear seat and frame?  The Bentley manual shows a diagram of  the layout,
but doesn't appear to cover the repair of the rear heater.

youll have to remove the z bed frame... when you get it off, cut the bottom
 strip off of the heater cover...so next time you dont have to remove the
bed frame..
