Hi,
Just wanted to throw this out there as I couldn't find any information online for my model cruiser.
Removal process as follows:

Turn steering wheel full lock to the drivers side.
Remove reservoir filler spout and elbow pipe in engine bay. This pipe is bolted into the guard to hold in place. Remove bolt and pull out plastic elbow with cap attached. This will leave a rubber oring on the reservoir tank exposed to the engine bay.
Remove plastic fixing clips from inner guard of wheel arch. You do not have to remove all of them, just remove them from the front first and stop at back of wheel arch where screws start to hold inner guard on.
The important part which is different to every other manual I have seen. There are FOUR, not three bolts that secure the washer reservior bottle to the guard. All FOUR bolts must be removed.
Once all FOUR bolts have been removed, you can lower the reservoir to get access to the washer pumps and hoses connecting them.
Disconnect hoses from pump but be sure to mark or identify which hoses go to which pump for installation later.
Remove electrical plugs to each pump to allow removal of the reservoir from vehicle.
Remove washer pump from reservoir by pulling pump straight out of reservoir and remove O-ring that comes with it. This can take a little force to remove so keep going.
Once removed from reservoir, Clean around seal where the new O-ring will go and install the new O-ring.
When O-ring in place, slide new washer pump into place and push firmly to seat in reservoir hole.
Repeat removal process to re-install.
Fill with water and happy days!
