Pity you're so far away, you'd be welcome to use my lift anytime

Awwwww cheers mate! Looks like I only need to drill the fronts so might give it the 45 degree attack

No probs, a nice sharp bit will go through plastic like a knife through butter mate, may be able to spin it in with your fingers even!

That's a fair point. I'll wait for the vinyl to arrive and get stuck in

Maybe not quite the same, but on the superb i turned the wheel to point in toward the engine (opposite to the instructions) which gave plenty of room to get handheld electric driver in to the right spot to drill for the fronts.

Fitted mine without wheel removal. On rears you have room. For fronts and drilling I put wheel on full lock to access the correct drilling point. All four done in about 45 minutes if I remember rightly. Just have something padded to lie / kneel on. ;-)

Cheers. Ordered on Monday, arrived yesterday along with a set of window deflectors. All fitted

Got mine on Thursday. I'm going to fit them when I swap my winter wheels off.

Still haven't fitted mine properly, my black vinyl for the leading edge of the arches has arrived but it's been arctic up here last few days!
