Not helpful for you I know lol.

I cant work out which clips you mean though? The heatshield uses plastic screw things, not clips?

Yeah man I usually tear it off. Really unnecessary on a diesel and with a stainless exhaust the heat is dispersed pretty quick. I would rip it off but the underneath of the Astor is so clean and near complete (minus oil catch undertray) so I wanna try and keep it as complete as possible. It's cable tied on for now but it rattles on turning engine off. I'll be sorting it out Smile

Hopefully handbrake refit will work this time. Only had one handbrake clip/groove break which was the o/s one just after the guide one near the caliper so was quite happy on having as little cable ties as possible [FACE WITH TEARS OF JOY]
