Front wheel arch liner removal

[swordfishcoupe]

Hello,

Much to my annoyment this morning while washing the car, I noticed a scuff on my drivers wing near the top. On closer inspection and trying to polish it a little, I noticed it has a slight dent, crease next to it !! No idea where that came from but must have been this week either at work or parked near the Mrs house on Thursday night.

Does anyone know how to remove the wheel arch liner at all ? I am guessing just remove, wheel and then do every screw around the edge - if a big job I will have to live with it for a while.

Cheers
Steven

I removed mine last year to check for rust. Yes just undo the screws around the periphery. There are a number of special plastic clips where you pull out the middle bit allowing it to release from the hole - a bit like a plaster board fixing. The liner does partially spring into place so is a bit fiddly.

Get some spare clips before you start, they can break.

It is easy to take them out but get some spare clips

Thanks Guys, are they normal Vauxhall dealer clips or are they a little more bespoke for the Monaro ?? In other words will I need to order from the Monaro specialists ??
