Wheelarch liners (again)
Hi guys
I need to get the wheel arch liner off the driver side to look at the sunroof drain ends, my car has mudflaps, with screws that are sized and slightly rounded off, could I pull it back far enough with mudflaps still attached? I have bought a new set of mudflaps but don't want to rip the old ones off as I would like swop them to the zt which hasn't any. Last edited by timspencer; 27th April 2017 at 17:43.. |

I think you can pull the liner back far enough, just did mine(not sunroof, just liners) because there is a rust trap behind I'll wager you'll find rust behind the mud flaps if you ever remove them

I used a 5' length of curtain wire and pushed about 4'6" down it. Is this long enough to go the whole length? Thank you.

Had the bottom pulley and very tired drive belts done today, and the technician had the arch liner and mud flaps off in a jiffy!
The sunroof drain was very full of silt, cut the end off and a bit of water drained out, Jobs a good'un! New mud-flaps to go on and calipers yet to be painted for Sunday plus a good wash and wax. |

Do the facelift wheel arch liners cover less than the pre-project fitment?
If so are they a straight fit onto a later car ? |

Not quite up to speed with the differences between facelift/prefacelift, project/preproject etc. Hope this helps.
