How do you remove the strips on the side of the car where the side light thingys are, although i do not have them on mine as it's uk spec.
I think they're called rubbing strips and are held on with four? white clips things. can't seem to get them off tho.

all i did to take em out was pry them out with a screwdriver. pretty straight forward

Shingo

pics of the strip and the clips.
Any ideas?
Also has anyone got a spare clip (pictured) or knows where to get one?
Thanks for any help.

Shingo

from the outside or from the inside? do you mean the clips or the strips?
cheers.

TitosToy

you can get those clips in any parts store.

from the outside. take a flat-head screwdriver, pry off the edges til you can fit the screwdriver through and pull slowly til it comes out.

Got it, cheers. good thing too as i could get the last bolt off the wheel arch liner. rusted on. now i need to find a new one!
thankyou for answering my dumb questions, but i never had to do that before today. usually engine relate troubles ;P

TitosToy

no problem. glad to help

I don't suppose anyone has a drivers side rubbing strip (front wing) in white but any colour will do?

Shingo

still after one of these if anyone has one lying around or any idea where to get one.

you can get them from the dealer brand spanking new - they aren't a lot of money
