Guide request changing slam panel? - scottbmxer - 23-01-2013
Is someone willing to type up a guide for changing a slam panel on 1.9dt ??
RE: Guide request changing slam panel? - samass - 23-01-2013
Couldnt be easier mate, two 13mm nuts on top, and then a couple in the arches next to the bumper bolts. Need to take wheels off, arch liners out, washer bottle out, bumper off, then those four bolts and away you go.
not the most detail guide ill give you, but you might be able to get it. Have a poke around and it'll make sense

Sam you're chatting out of your ass mate, you don't need to take any of that off... There's plenty of space to get your hand up behind by just undoing the arch liners, all you have to so is unplug the head lights/fog lights and disconnect the bonnet release cable, which if its a ph1 is pies easy. Then with the whole front end off, its so much easier to strip things off the slam panel
RE: Guide request changing slam panel? - samass - 24-01-2013
Yeah, but if you don't know where the bolts are, its a fuckton easier with all that off
RE: Guide request changing slam panel? - Connor - 24-01-2013
No its not, slam panel bolts are easier to find than the piddly little bumper nuts lol
RE: Guide request changing slam panel? - samass - 24-01-2013
Well, that really depends on the noob level of the person trying to find them, no?
RE: Guide request changing slam panel? - Matt - 24-01-2013
I say it does make it easier with all that stuff off. Better ease of access. Especially if you have monkey hands like me
RE: Guide request changing slam panel? - Connor - 24-01-2013
No, I'll be easier for a noob to find a 13mm than 2 10mm
RE: Guide request changing slam panel? - Matt - 24-01-2013
Yes, but you can't really see shit under there if you've only jacked it up.
From experience it's a lot of work by touch. I've undone the bumper nuts by mistake before. As a noob it's hard to judge the difference between a 13 and a 10
RE: Guide request changing slam panel? - samass - 24-01-2013
Eeeexactly what Matt said. Get back in your barn connnooooooorrrrr
RE: Guide request changing slam panel? - Connor - 24-01-2013
No its not, a 13mm socket won't fit on a 10mm... Just get a hand up in there and finger around
