Removing petrol filler flap - help needed asap.

[_Tom]

How the hell do they come off on a 1*2? haha! I can pull it out but its attached by a spring somehow? I dont want to pull it and break the spring so it flaps. The bolts seem inaccessible..

I need to remove it asap so i can get a colour match for paint.

Small plastic bolts that you access from inside the wheel arch, they will most likely break.

Thanks mate. So rip all the carpet away in the boot and it'll expose it yeah?

No, Access through OS/r wheel arch. Will need to remove road wheel for more room.
