    Ok, I got that now, but there came up another problem.

    The Riviera emblems on the fenders. I cant reach all nut so how do I get them off?
    Im now thinking of getting the innter fenders out. Is that the way to do it?

    Jrgen,

    I did it sticking my arm all the way down, lost a lot of skin doing that, but it works. Even lost a spanner there, still lives inside the wing somewhere. :laugh:

    Ask a girl to do the job for you, most of the time they have arms less thick.

    So that makes 3 spanners, or 3 wrenches all together........depends on which side of the ocean you are.

    Oh, I thought you mean the "nuts" with spanner ;)

    So two nuts on the drivers side and 1 wrench on the passenger side. :shock:
