Front Flaps
Hi All

Noticed yesterday a rubber/sponge seal seems to be loose within the drivers side flap/vent (do they have a special name ?)

Is the flap easy to get off? and does the foam/rubber ring attach to the bulkhead or to the flap ?

Seal fits to the flap, not the bulkhead, understand that after market ones are not as good as main dealer parts.

I was just going to araldite or superglue the ring back on to the flap ? I guess the flap is easy to remove ?

Open the flap then from outside the vehicle underneath the flap there are two ten mil nuts to undo, then lift up (I'd leave the top hinge bolt in place if your just re-glueing

Thumbs Up the two bolts attach the vent opening lever inside the vehicle so don't lose them Mr. Green
