Serious its mega easy, took me about 1 hour. As long as you have some kind of instruction leaflet you'll be fine.
Complete undertrays, now thats a different story, took me about 8-9 hours over 2 days cos the damn thing wouldn't fit correctly, grrrrrrrrr!

I had to refit mine this weekend while doing me shock.
Its easier if you take the tail plastics off. The little tiny screws that hold the metal amgle strip that hold (th eindicatros.. am i turning spanish??) the indicators on are easy to lose in a chippinged driveway but can be replaced by a tiny pop rivet. Your existing undertray goes in between the two layers you will end up with, when the tail tidy is assembled ![]() Last edited by skeetly; 02-02-09 at 05:53 PM. Reason: spanish |
