start pulling stuff off you will find out how you need to do it, haha. haynes manual?

 

Download the service manual in the sticky section. If its not in there, then just start pulling stuff off until you get it I guess.

 

yeah best way to do something is experimenting and doing it yourself! try it guarantee you'll never forget ever again!

 

you have to take a couple screws out and remove several of these little metal clips that look like giant pop rivets, which will probably break. and you have to take a couple of these pop rivet things out of the little mud flap piece too.

 

ding very nice vanilla face very nice!

 

?wtf

 

haha what i can't sleep and its 4am...randomness is known!

 

The inner plastic fender well... I just did that one a few weeks ago. Removal is easy, installation.. that's another story...

There's 11 "POM" rivets that hold it on. to remove the plastic rivets you just push in on the centers and they release. WARNING: they are not reusable!!! You will need to purchase more rivets to replace them. They operate just like standard rivets and snap off the stems upon installation.


Good news is that I've already done the legwork in finding the rivets and the tool for cheap. Here's what you will need.

Harbor freight sells it for $15 bucks. (everyone else sells it for $40)

You can get by with the rivets that are in the kit but if you want some extras they sell em there too...

Just bring in one of yours to match up the size


One more note on installation, grab a nail punch or something in case you need to ream out the holes and help line them up upon installation. Also the "factory tool" snaps them off clean, where you may have to go behind the harbor freight tool with a razor or a pair of dikes to remove the excess sticking out (usually like 1/4-18 inch)
