First thing to do to make it easy is jack ya car up an take ya wheel off back arches are simple there are about 6 or so either 8mm or 10mm plastic nuts to undo

on the front half the plastic nuts are hidden behind the wheel arch lining this is also simple to remove there are a few plastic type rivets holding it in place if your carefull u can re-use the things
