    I've noticed that one of my sideskirts has quite a lot of clips missing at the bottom. I'm guessing this happens a lot? Has anyone else got this? Cud b my fault when jacking up or going over a speedbump to quick.

    Doesn't seem to b coming lose. R these clips easy to replace if needs be? Where do I get them from? Cheers

    The side skirt clips are a couple of quid from a citroen main dealer or ebay...

    there are about 10 or so to replace they just slide out, then pop the skirt back on the give a firm push to make sure the clips are propley in..

    piss easy to do also i usually pop a screw & washer in the end hole near the rear wheel to ensure they stay on lmao

    No there a different shape but it prolly is possible to use the same ones, i couldnt they seemed not to hold so i got some that are there the same as the front light trim.

    kinda triangle point end.

    I had the same on my VT, it was a pain to just replace 2 without taking the whole side off but I used pliers and fingers ha. took a good few minutes.


    off a quick search:
    http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/GENUINE-CITROE...#ht_500wt_1156

    same as them but find cheaper! i paid £2 on ebay last month.
