    Inner Fender Splash Shields

    Who makes the best (correct) inner fender splash shields and staples? It seems like none of the major suppliers show pictures of their repros so it's hard to decide.
    Thanks for any help.

    I think they all come from the same manufacturer no matter who you get them from. I bought from YO and Cars an they were the same.

    Not all the same. Get them from www.thepartsplaceinc.com
    They will include the correct staples. I have not seen
    the ones from YO since I refuse to deal with them and
    their outrageous shipping prices.

    The last ones I bought from someone also had the correct staples.

    Thanks, Dave and George for the info. I ordered a set today from The Parts Place.

    This leads me to the question, how do you use the new staples?

    My inner fenders still have the original staples in them. I plan to remove them and hold the new sheild in place and somethign pointed to mark the holes.

    is this how everyone else would do it?

    My new staples wouldn't fit. I had to drill out the holes slightly then push them tru one at a time. I cut myself alot! very time consuming. Just allow some bulge in the seals so the control arms don't rip the seals from pressure.
