antera309 3 Posted March 9, 2004 Report Share Posted March 9, 2004 I need to replace one of the rear arch trim and sideskirt on the left hand side of the car. Does anyone know what parts & tools are required to do this? This job is not covered in the Bentley manual. Link to post Share on other sites
Macca 1 Posted March 9, 2004 Report Share Posted March 9, 2004 You'll need a rivet gun and rivets to get the arch back on, although i put mine back in with some screws and plastic bits from B&Q.The side skirts are held in place with philips screws on the underside, clip along the side of the car and have rivets again on the ends (where they face the wheel).the correct rivets are cheap from VW, and i guess you can get a rivet gun from somewhere like machine mart.

Macca 1 Posted March 9, 2004 Report Share Posted March 9, 2004 No problem also, i found the best way to get the rivets off in the first place was to saw their heads off, then hammer out the pins using mallet + screwdriver Link to post Share on other sites
