Rear wheel arch iner

madeupname · 6th June 2024, 15:26

Hi all,
I need to put a new chrome finishing strip on the rear panel. It is fastened at 6 points, 4 can be reached from inside the boot, but the 2 nearest the door, I think, can only be reached from under the wheel arch.
Is this correct?
Thank you.

They are all reached from the boot

Thanks Ched, I'll see if I can find the other two then.

If I remember rightly I dropped the rear seat and got into a position so that I could get my left arm in through the gap in the panel and used a small screwdriver to push the tabs in.
