Happy New Year!

I have two questions to start off 2010. First, the easist way to remove the wiper cowl? I did a search and some say wiper puller needed and others just let it stay at vertical position and work your way around. If anyone has a tip, I would be in your debt.

Question 2: Has anyone replaced their carpet? I had a nephew who got a little car sick on a spirited drive. I got the smell out and stain is pretty much gone. But looking at ebat I could get a molded carpet in red for $125, if the install is not that bad then this may be the way to go.

Thanks
