Hi, First time posting on here but I've been a longtime reader and have solved many problems with my car with the advice on these forums. So, Thank you.
I have a 59 Grande Punto 1.4 with a couple of issues that I'm struggling to find solutions for and hoped you guys could shine some light on them.
Firstly, I had a little incident with a rock in a carpark and I bashed up my front bumper. Now, I am fairly confident with the process of removal and replacement of a new bumper HOWEVER the wheel arch liner bolts, the bottom hex bolts and the bolts under the headlights are either rusted in, or the thread retention clips just spin. Could anyone point me in the right direction to find these bolts and clips? So I can drill the old ones out and replace everything with fresh new ones.
Secondly, I have a leak somewhere on the tailgate window and through the process of elimination I've ruled out it coming from rear washer hose, brake light, rear wiper or any welding folds. The water drips in just behind the rear wiper motor and drips into the cavity of the boot lid and then drains out through the left hand side rubber stopper. Any solutions or ideas are greatly welcomed before I send the car in to have the seals replaced.
Thanks again
Cheers
