Screw loose?

[Maniac]

So I thought time to switch the stock grilles back to the gloss black ones.

Thought let’s use the electric drill in screwdriver mode to remove the small hex heads from the intake to make life easier.

Two hours later....

Entire undertray is unbolted from one side, I’m covered in muck and blood.

No trace of the last hex head that unlike the rest had to fall from the drill just as I moved right over the headlight. Tink tink tap...

Vanished.

New bolts ordered as originals are rusty anyhow.

Just hope the vanished one doesn’t end up in a belt or tyre...

Arg.

Sorry :roll: You should have posted a " what's the easiest way to remove grills " thread they are a bit more difficult on 89s to 85s but once you suss it out its a simple process for next time .

Lol just kidding. I’ve done it several times and find it easier with my arm down the back to pop the clips.

Jus my saving time method this time around didn’t quite go to plan!
