I‘be seen there is a screw inside the tray at the back. Remove this and use a trim tool?

Where are your mud flaps from pal ?Not just today, but over the last week or so.... replaced the Auxiliary belt and tensioner to get rid of the irritating squeaks, fitted carbon fibre grill trims (to cover up the previous red), fitted new mud flaps that look like they will actually do a much better job than the genuine VW shite things, removed my chrome sidebars, had tyres fitted to my new banded steels, fitted the wheels, then gave him a bath!

Can you show a pic of where you fixed them?It worked.... @ChrisR has these on his van and kindly passed on the link to me. They’re great and very easy to fix to the plastic arch liner of your van. They come with fixings and actually fit where mud flaps should, rather than too far back like the genuine VW ones.
I should’ve done that @JOG when I had the wheels off, but to be honest I was pushed for time yesterday when I was fitting them and losing daylight! I’ll get some pictures up ASAP. I used four fixings on each of the fronts and only three on each of the rears.... very easy job, but obviously a lot easier with the wheel off. I used an 8mm drill bit through the mud flap straight into the arch liner to create the hole for the fixings
No probs @T6ARF - whenever works for you is fine. Boris tells me I’m in no hurry as I’m going nowhere! ) It’s just that I washed my van today and can actually find my arch liners now!I should’ve done that @JOG when I had the wheels off, but to be honest I was pushed for time yesterday when I was fitting them and losing daylight!

About bloody time you had a SOS image @JOGTrue and then SWMBO refuses to go near it!

I still haven't got around to fitting mine, I'm assuming it's going to be impossible to do the rears without removing the wheels.
To be honest @Texxaco, they protrude out as far as you want to fit them. They are just a flat mud flap so you can fit them where you want them?
Agh ok, I thought l the holes were pre drilled @T6ARF
I have the genuine VW ones and they are only good for show. Another upgrade for the list.
I’ll get a picture up for you as soon as I can mate
Not pre drilled mate, so the world is your oyster!
Or, your arch liners are soon to be colanders!Not pre drilled mate, so the world is your oyster!
Ordered just now!
Bit of a clean in the cab and cleaned some bits that usually get left out.(Is that detailing?) Especially pleased to clean the cable covers on the doors as they were coated in yellow film. Also silicone lubed the door seals in case it freezes again!
