Silly question time again.
Having my aircon serviced tomorrow by an Indy, I assume he will need access to the quick release couplings that are behind the side louvres (drivers side?). How do these come off, cannot see any fixings, are they just 'snap fit'?
Cheers
for any help.

don't know what lotus you have S2? but the K series ones are up high in the engine bay not needing the side grille taking out. if you do need to take it out, it is done after taking the wheel liner out from the inside.

with a bit of dexterity they can be reached from inside the engine bay

cheers guys. I was just worring a bit, Mrs was taking it to work and AC guy was visiting on site, did not want a phone call asking where/how to connect his hoses. No need in the end, I did suss out access from the engine bay, yes, it does look a bit tricky, but he was able to connect without removing the vents. Hopefully the elise will be soooooooo Cooooooool now, even cooler than yesterday.
