Blanking plate fitment

[Wheelspinwardrobe]

Hi all

Is fitting the blanking plate to the turbo really awkward, which is the easiest way to do it, from underneath? was going to try in a minute!!!! Do I need different bolts before I start or can I use the ones I take out?

Cheers Phill

you just use the ones you took out i did mine from above quite awkward especially if the bolts are stiff

definatly advise a 10mm ratchet spanner, i done mine 2 bolts from the top and one underneath if i remember correctly.

helps to take off the hoses/pipes around it, vac lines, intake etc

i done mine mate its really not that difficult. use a ratchet spanner as stu says above. the 2 top bolts are easy, then u can turn the recirc valve around to get to the lower bolt (if u want) tho i think best way to undo the lower bolt is to jack up the car get underneath where u can put ur hand up from the bottom of the car and undo the lower bolt piece of cake. (thats how i done mine)

ps if ur gona jack ur car up and get underneath USE axel stands ok.
