    ive just cleaned the front washers as they were blocked so i thought id do the rear one as well.i got the washer off and it was clear, pulled the rubber bung off the car (between the boot and chassis) and the washer pipe came out with it, not connected to anything . so i took the head lining off, window seals off, and plastic covers off to find it goes through the chassis. how do i connect the small pipe back to the main pipe that goes through the chassis?ive tried getting some wire with a hook on the end of it but the pipe is quite solid. ive nearly sliced the top of my finger off and im tempted to take a grinder to the inside of the car to gain access. anyone help me please? the mot is due on friday!

    I've never been tested on my rear washer on my saxo, never worked and stripped the rear wiper set-up etc off
