toddled along to peugeot just to grab a few little bit's among them were just some wheel arch liner plugs/clips,since when where they £1 each? 1st thought was that he was looking at the wrong part but he wasn't  anyone any cheaper alternatives?  ________________________________________ Proud Member of the ASTOR Owners Club |

I think i paid 50p each last time i got some, i really ought to try and be a bit more careful when removing them  I have wondered about trying the clips which flare out when you screw a little screw down the middle, but i can never remember the hole diameter when i see them, they would be re-usable and save money in the long run i imagine. ________________________________________ Goldie the track car. |

I've used a few of them and I didn't find any problems. For what it's worth, here's a tip for removal..Couple of bits of wire twisted together, slip one piece either side....  ....pulll hard and bingo - out it comes, no levering or damage at all.  ________________________________________ I'm Si btwNight Blue VW Golf GTD Bianca LBSC Rallye - Track/Road Slag Project Thread Sparkling Silver Mini Cooper D - Super Dooper - (The other half's wheels) |

Ive just fitted arch liners to the track car and used 6mm rivnuts with stainless button head bolts and penny washers, seems like a good option |
