Post by bradh »

this is a little guide i knocked up today while swapping my wings

hear are all the bolts u need to un-do:

remove mud flap and undo this bolt:

then u have these 2 under the plastic skirt:

good time to clean out the poo too

then open the door and u have one hear:

dont need to undo this one all the way just slack it off enough for it now to grip the wing

then u need to undo this bolt to get to the last hidden bolt its what i assume to be a dust cover behind the wheel arch right by the indicator :

once cover removed u see this:
Image
dont need to undo this one all the way just slack it off enough for it now to grip the wing

then u have the 4 under the bonnet:

u will need to either lift up or remove the scuttle cover for this

then finally the last few bolts:
removed the plastic guide that the bumper ends go into:
Image

then under it there is 2 more bolts :

and then its a case of slowly pull and remove the wing being careful not to scratch ur door

fitting is the same this order is not the way u can do it its just the way i did it

hope this helps people out
