Title: Booty !
Post by: papperbear on 27 January 2004, 08:37

No not that kind of booty ... every time I open my boot I can hear what sounds like a loose screw in the plastic panel that is attached to the boot.  I've had a look but I cant seem to find any screws to take it off to have a look inside.  Do I need stronger glasses or is the panel super glued on?

 :-\

Hi there papperbear

I think you need stronger glasses;  D No only joking

The screws are hard to find, but they are inside the handles where you can pull the boot lid down. (I can't remember if there are normal screws or the funny star shaped ones)

Then in order to pull the panel out you need to pull hard (Don't be scared to do this they are on some strong clips)

Then you can root around for that annoying rattling sound (I had the same problem)
