Rover 75 trim/panel removal

Scoobydodad · 1st June 2019, 09:14

Have recently bought a 75 and attempted to rectify a few problems, ie: door cards, front bumper, boot trim, but having started it never ceases to amaze me how previous owners remove these and do not replace them as they took them off, my center console only held on with the 2 back bolts no screws anywhere, drivers door card 5 clips missing, front bumper secured by 1 clip under bumper, both side bolts missing and only 1 screw in wheel arch, all this is totally down to ignorance it just makes work for someone else, it is so easy to put back panels and fitting clips the way they are removed, really annoying!!!.

Can understand but not condone the missing door trim clips as they seem to disintegrate when you unclip them.
