Insert a Screwdriver (I wrapped mine in cloth to protect the paint) into each of the indents seen at the top.



Lever the wedge forward



Remove the Wedge

Plus last weekend it p1ssed it down - couldn't go out to take any piccies

Sounds much better now I've got the ScoobySport DeCat Centre and STi Backbox.... MUCH more "urgent"

The other good thing is the Air-Con and Sony flip-face stereo

Next thing is to install my old Sub. Then I'm sorted for this year! (however, there is only about 6 weeks left of this year!!)

Ian, after removing the wedges, did you spray them matching car colour and put them back, or just left it blank ? or fill the gap with something? i have recently got the clear indicators and side repeaters, wasnt quite sure what to do with the wedges, although i know i want them out. I was going to spray them.

Oooo...nice car (same as mine - got it a few weeks ago, must post a pic or 3).

Interested to hear about what to do with the Orange bits too. Only other thing I want to do to mine possibly is fit clear indicators.

With regards to my wedges I sanded them down, and then painted them black.

I'd second doing them black, they look much better on a DBM, especially with clear indicators such as......

i bought my clear indicators from scoobysport in Basildon. total of £120 something. with the silver bulbs. Black looks good on a DBM but what about green mica, i dont think black will suit. maybe just sand them down as advised and then spray green !!! thoughts.?

pink badge is from the STI's but they will stick to anything.

You can get the clear front indicators from DR Motorsport for £60 and £15 for some Silver Bulbs.

Hmm my DBM goes in next week for repair work to the boot lid. Is it worth me taking the wedges out and getting them colour coded or will that look even worse? Anyone got a pic with the wedges coloured DBM or a closer pick with them coloured black so I can make a choice?

Kev,

My car is the one at the top!!!

The other ones are Matt's and Ian's

The background should've given it away!

Kev, stickers do tend to polarise opinion. One thing I would say, is that they look much better in the flesh.

Simon, I'll try and take a closer pic sometime soon. Especially after my P1 lip goes on
