| Fitting Rear Wheel Arch Mouldings - D3 |
|
Hi Folks - I may be being very stupid but can someone please explain precisely how to refit the Rear Wheel Arch Moulding (rear section). I have a new set of the correct fixings but I just cannot see how you can insert them into body holes and then "lock" the pins since they are then hidden inside.
Should the fixings be inserted and locked and then slide the moulding into it? If so how do you fit the top two?
Are all 9 holes used to fix the top and bottom rows?
A detailed explanation of the exact sequence would be helpful.
Many Thanks - Paul

The clips split, so you have a round disc with a hole in it, that slips onto the wheel arch.
The studs then locate into the holes on the body.
There is a locating pin on the wheel arch. line that up and you should be able to thump the wheel arch, so the studs mate up with the clips.........
Hope that helps.
David. There is no such thing as bad weather, only the wrong clothes.

Have you got the correct fixings? It sounds like you have the black inner wheel arch ones (black, with a center pin that when pushed in, expands the outer part).
The wheel arch trim ones are 2 piece, yellow and white. The yellow bit (male) goes in the body work and the white bit (female), goes in the trim

you want clip part number DYC101420
its a 2 part clip that comes clipped together as 1 slot it into the plastic arch then line up and give it a sharp tap to snap it in place
