Anto Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 I have some after market ones to try but can't figure out how to get the original ones off the bonnet :-( I've tried to slide a plastic card underneath from all sides expecting some kind of clip to release but they won't budge. Can't access from below as the bonnet is kind of "double skinned" at that point. I don't want to damage them by forcing too hard in case I decide to put them back on.... Anyone know the secret? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mk4Gaz Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 They're a git to do ! They have a sprung tab on each end, the shorter sides. I found that I had to compress each end at the same time, to release them. Maybe try a credit card or similar under each end, pushing in and lift. I used a couple of small screwdrivers in the end, and mullered them, but it doesn't matter as i'm painting the bonnet and will replace the jets with yaris ones anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
