Hi Dudes,

Still trying to get my bumper back on!

Thought I'd fix a dodgy bit of trim while it was off and all I've managed to do is to make it worse!

It's the bit of rubber strip that runs from the rear wheels round to the tailgate.

I just can't get the clips to engage. Is there a trick to getting it on? I did think it might be easier to take the clips off the body, engage them in the rubber strip and remount them, but I can't see how they come off either and I'm worried about breaking them now.

GRRR.

Any ideas?

From your Photo ..(& I did blow it up really big) they look like the same type of clips that are on the Disco 1 rear trim panels ..... IF they are you are SUPPOSED to "HOOK em under the top bit & "CLICK" the bottom bit "Home"..

If that makes any sense to yer....................

It seems to make more sense to hook the bottom and try to click the top, but I'm not having much luck that way either. Just got my hammer out for one final attempt...

Can I suggest that while you're out at the car with your hammer, why not try heating the clips with hair dryer to allow them to flex a bit more so you can 'push' them into place.

For what it's worth.

I'm after some of these clips for the same piece of bodywork trim. Is there a good source?
