Hi,
The other day I lifted the boot to find the latch pin with the spring round it that is normally attached to the bottom of the boot lid still in the hole in the rear clam - it has become detached from the boot lid.
I can hear the bits rattling around inside the plastic sheeting around the bottom of the spoiler.
I have an 04 car and I know the boot mechanism has changed since then but please can someone tell me how to take the boot lid apart so I can retrieve the stray pieces and maybe fix it? I had a quick look at it last night and it seems fairly simple but I may need to take the wing off.
Thanks!
Had this exact thing myself although could not hear the part rattling around under the wing. I got a new piece and put it back together. I keep checking that the pin is still tight, i’m amazed there is not a plastic locking type section on the piece you are missing. If you need the part number for a new piece let me know, i’ll dig it out (got it somewhere but not sure at the moment)
I’ve had a look today, it looks like to get the plasic out I will need to remove the wing and the chicken wire grill which seems to be attached with some sealent.
Can anyone confirm please?
i had a similar issue with the pin coming loose. I LockTite’d it in place
