Default Blob eye side skirt issue

Hi all my passenger side skirt seems to coming off at the very front, I'm hoping its just a broken clip, do the skirts just pull off? Do they come off ok as from experience the clips always seem to break when I've removed skirts from other cars in the past.

Where would be best to find a replacement clip or clips? I'm assuming subaru lol?

Kind regards

Mick

Right can anyone shed any light n this please, I pulled my passenger side skirt off the other night as its not sitting right at the front and sometimes catches the the front passenger door when its opened.

The skirt came off no bother and when it was off there seems to be a clip missing off the front of my skirt and there was a white pop clip thing stuck in my cars sill at the front but no where on the skirt for it to clip into lol.

This is the front of my sideskirt where it seems the clip is missing


Can anyone tell me how many clips the should be.....5 or 6?

Thanks

Is there not one that goes through the front into the rear edge of the wheelarch, a round one?

These are the usual culprits: http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_tr...at=0&_from=R40

Hey alcazar, yeah there is a fastener that pushes through into the arch liner but the one that seems to be missing on mine goes into the sill near he front, on the photo it's a bit missing off my actual side skirt (I'm hoping) you can see a faint line where I assume there used to be the bit that the white sill clips slide into.

It's really hard to explain without being able to see a..........oh hang on answered my own question I'll take the drivers side off and find out lol.

Cheers

I see what you mean.


If it IS missing, put it back with a nice blob of TigerSeal etc under it in that position, and tape it down until the stuff goes off.
Using just one blob means if it ever HAS to come off, it still can.
