How do you remove windshield cowl?

[billinbaltimore]

Hello-
Every time it rains, water builds up under my front passenger side carpet. After tracing the leak from the inside, it appears as though it is coming in through somewhere under the winshield. If I pour water on the windshield cowl, I can see the water pour in from the inside. My problem is that I can not figure out how to get the windshield cowl off. I believe its called the cowl... it is the plastic peice which extends across the bottom of the windshield and surrounds the windshield wipers. I have removed the windshield wipers, but can not find how this peice is attached. Any ideas? I see some plastic looking bolts, but when I pulled on one, it snapped.

i have the same problem with my xl7, you do have to pull out the plastic retainer pins and they will more than likely break but you can get replacements and most any auto parts store they are just universal clips. the dealer fixed mine once under warranty and it never stopped leaking. i have tried several times to seal it up myself but have not been successful if you get yours to stop please let me know how you did it,
