Removing R32 engine cover
« on: 30 October 2011, 16:45 »
Hi guys and girls!

Was just wondering how difficult it is to remove the engine cover from the R32. I'm currently converting my Mk3 with the R32 lump and i would like the rocker cover showing :) Thanks!  :smiley:

I wish it would be as easy as just pulling it off. Looks like there are quite a few bolts holding it together?

It's not the rocker cover i want off. Just the plastic cover. Just looking at it though, it looks a pain In the ass. Looks like so many bolts.  :undecided:
