You dont need to remove the headlight if you have the correct tools.
You dont need to remove the bumper either, its only the corner bolt that attaches it to the wing. |
I've just taken the nearside wing off my daughters '03 plate 206 style. There are five bolts holding the wing on, two on top of the wing (one of which holds the bonnet stay), and two accessed in the void behind the headlight. The Fifth bolt is behind the wing near the door pillar and can only be accessed once the other four are undone and the wing is free from the locator pins on the scuttle panel. This fifth bolt doesn't have to be removed as the wing simply hangs on it. I found I had to remove the headlight to get to the bolt that holds the wing to the scuttle and the other bolt is awkward to get to, but I found using a universal joint on a long extension allowed me to undo and refasten it. Once all the bolts are undone, you can lift the wing vertically off the locating post at the bottom of the door pillar. |
