Removing Wing

Hey all can anbody give me some pointers for removing the front wing? So far i have removed the 3-4 that are in the engine bay and 2 by the door pillar. Do i need to take the front bumper/ headlight off to access more that i cant see?

 

I done a search but cant find anything. Any help would be much appreciated

 

Shaun :)

Hm - I did this the other day ... two bolts under the door sill, two by the door hinges, one behind the light, loads under the bonnet, and all the ones attaching the wheel well plastics. I think there's a couple inside attaching behind the nose that you can just reach if you pull the plastic out the way and put the wheels on lock.

 

Then you just have to pop out the indicator (if you're non facelift) by moving it to the side, or disconnecting the loom to it as you take the wing off.

 

Make sure you attach the fixings under the sill and by the door hinges before attempting to open/close the door, as these hold it rigid - without those it'll bow in slightly and foul the edge of the door.

 

EDIT: Any advice on removing a bolt with a sheared off head is appreciated :) Remember that I'm a complete chimp with things like this, though, and my tools consist of a cheap socket set, what Toyota supply in the boot, and several screwdrivers ...
