Default Replace Wiper Selonoid

Do I have to drop the dash to replace the Wiper Selonoid (behind the Tack)? The selonoid has only 4 lbs of vacuum coming out and 12 lbs going in. Any tips on how to get at this to replace?

Might have to, It is held on with a screw with a hex head, may be able to remove plastic vent piece and get it that way. Which would require putting your legs over the seat and your head under the dash, no easy way to do it....GOOD F-ING LUCK!!!!!
