Just about to get the side skirts and rear spats colour coded but a few probs last night trying to get the corner/rear spats off.

Can anyone advise how these blasted things come...Ive removed the back clip + the small bolt in the front end of the bumper in the wheel arch. I noticed two additional clips underneath fastened by flat posi screws and one of these has an access hole but the other looks virtually impossible to get at.

Do I need to remove these two screws or just loosen them off - If so how to do i get to the one near the front ( about 6 inches back from the wheel arch )?

Or should they just slide off in some direction without any tampering?

or am i missing the plot completely !??

Ta in advance for any help.

Cheers
Rich

Once you've undone the two clips you mention, they slide off towards the rear of the car.

Hi Alcazar

Do you mean the two clips which are a bugger to get at..i.e. the ones in the middle underneath ( one through the access hole and the other one i havent got a clue how to get to )

Thumbs up

No, IIRC, it's just the clips that are easy to see, hang on a minute while I go out and look at the car.......................
right, mine appears to be a bolt at the front leading edge, and a clip under the back edge, and IIRC, it was just those two.
They were stiff to pull back as they were very dirty inside.
