Where are all the fixing points for MK3 astra wings ? and how many ?

Also where are the mounts/bolts for the front bumper situated ?

Many thanks

Wings- along the top, inside the door shut near the top of the wing and at the bottom of the wing where it meets the sill.

bumper, two 8 mm bolts behind each wheel arch liner in the side of the bumper, and one 13mm nut each side in the front bumper also accessed behind the arch liners.

cheers for the reply

does that mean i have to take the arch liners off (and wheels in the process) to get to all the front bumper bolts ?

thats right, tek the liners out stupid things anyway

**Glenis** · 23-03-2006 21:29

i was dreading to have to do that

You can get away with jacking it up and turning the steering, then you can get away with just removing the front liner bolts by the wing, leaving wheels and liner on in the process, bit fiddly but easily do-able, especialy if youv got ratchet spanners.

will give that method a try cheers jay

cool good luck, can remove mine in about 10 minutes that way.

There is also a wing bolt under the headlight IIRC

**gsijay** · 23-03-2006 21:59

well spotted that man, forgot about that one!

^ Yes. The front on needs the grille removed. It's on the bracket that the grille clips into.
