Managed to catch car on fence while driving into drive and pulled mt fuel flap off the side of the car and the hinges have broken, see image.

Now I have undone the two bolts holding the bracket on, bolts snapping in process :mad: but there is an insert with a spring behind it that I know operates the small latch which pops out and stop the rear door being opened while petrol flap is open, the thing is how do i remove this, I presume one needs to access something behind the petrol cap sunken area, any help would be much appreciated, I need to figure this out before I order a new bracket or door flap, not seen any second hand ones around by the way.
