Plastic Arch Liner

Post by nintenjo »

I have noticed I seem to be missing a plastic arch liner near the front passenger side suspension / break hose mount.

Image

I saw people refer to it in various YouTube videos but I don’t seem to have one.. any ideas what the part is called / for as I’d like a replacement.

The rubber flap is the one that gets unhooked to provide access to the spark plugs,and they eventually split,so people tend to leave them off.

As above,you could make one,or as I did,get a pair from a breaker for a couple of quid ;)

Protects the plugs on the nearside and the steering uj on the offside.

They're called Splash Shields. Part #F151-56-321E @ 9.47 each plus VAT retail.
You'd also need two Mudguard Clips #BC1D-56-145 @ £0.90 each plus VAT to attach the shields.
