I need a little bit of assistance when it comes to removing the plastic covers which go over the top mounts for the shocks. i'm wondering how i can remove them.

 

This is the piece for reference.

Does this help?

 

 

If its anything like a Fabia, you might need to remove quite a few clips, screws etc. 

Have a look at this link

Will be the same for a Citigo.

 

The website is a bit tricky to navigate. The highlited 'Chapters' in red that are often referred to in the instructions are dead end links.

 

You need to find the main topic / area that you want on the left hand side of the page and then click through every subsequent page to the one you want using the Prev/ Next page buttons near the top right hand side. Hope that makes sense!

 

You will need to do this to find out how to remove the C trim and that depends upon whether you have a 2 or 4door car.

 

Good luck.
