What you need
Some sort of squirty oil to help loosen nuts
Safety Goggles - you really do need these, as the wheel arch is full of crud
1x 10mm 1/4in socket and ratchet
Spanners No good here
Removing
O/s/r wheel
lay on the floor and look up where the pipes go
On my image i have already removed the filler flap, but you can clearly see where the 2 holes where it goes
My advice
Dont snap the bolts
Work the nuts, loosen, tighten it up - loosen it a tiny bit further, to work it loose
I've had todo this with both of mine
They will be dirty - a spray with cleaner / penetrating oil does help
Dont undo one completly while your working the nuts free/clean the threads, it'll make the flap smack around
Refitting
Clean the threads really really well, i used a wire wheel on a drill todo this
Refitting consists of inserting the studs and fitting the nuts
Copper grease is handy to make sure they come off in the future too!
When refitting, when you nearly have them tight, adjust the filler flap to make the shut lines correct and then nip it up!
Your done!
