Hello,

Just wanting to check if there is anything to removing the side skirts? As far as I can tell it is two screws in front wheel arch, line of screws underneath and then just poppers holding it on.

Cheers

Andy

I think That is about it, but you need the doors open to allow the skirt to come off.

Got these off without too much trouble. The screws on the underside were rusty and couldn't be undone so used the claw side of a hammer up behind the side skirt between the side skirt and bottom of car to try and break the head off the screw. What actually happened was that this popped out a wedge shaped clip which the screw tapped into on the other side. This technique worked surprisingly well and almost all of these clips came out unbroken. All that remained to do was pop the side skirt off by pulling sideways starting at the back of the car.
