Hi, everyone. The hose that runs to the showerhead came apart over the winter and it is in a very tough place to get at it. Has anyone replaced it and is there a trick to getting access to it or do we have to do a major dissassembly? Thanks very much in advance for any help. Alice

I have found that you can access the shower hose through the locker that opens in the head. You do need some long arms. I now have an easier acces as I installed a one of those 4" twisting accesses in the shower stall portion above the seat (to facilitate pulling the cables for the anchor windlass I installed). See uploaded picture. Hope this helps.

Bit late to this, but...
I just replaced the whole shower assembly. Scott is right that in the locker just above the sink the left hand (forward) vertical panel can be removed. It improves access from none to marginal. I almost added an inspection port like Scott, but managed to get it done without it.
