Little help please!
I received my Prothane motor mount inserts yesterday and put the top one in yesterday. I was putting the lower one in tonight and quickly ran into a problem... I was trying to take off the splash shield and the bolt that is on the underside of the bumper wont come out... It just turns. Any suggestions on getting it out?
Would be the farthest to the right

Yeah thats what I thought at first, but theres no way possible that I can see that you'd be able to reach it even if there was.
And I swear I took that bolt off a few weeks ago when I was doing the leak test trying to get to that intercooler pipe. I had to have taken it off. But nonetheless it doesn't back out at all now.

Try grabbing the splash panel near the screw and pull down on it in the same direction that the screw needs to come out as you try to unscrew it. This should help it to back out without any problems.

Thanks guys
I actually just came in from finishing up. I was trying what RR said before asking but it was just grinding a hole in the plastic, but I tried again today... And I just ripped the plastic off the bolt lol. After that I got the bolt off easily by wedging a flat head under it forcing it down while turning it out.
Now off to test drive[sm=smiley20.gif]
