Remove the nuts (x2) that secure the fascia to the body (torque 4 Nm).
Note: The nuts are hard to recover if they are dropped. Start
loosening the nuts with a wrench, then perform the final loosening by
hand.
Pull the left and right edges of the fascia away from the body to release
them.
With assistance, release the rear fascia from the body. Remove the fascia slowly
and tilt the outer side down as it is removed to avoid dropping any shims that are
hanging on the studs.
Installation
Caution: Replace all nylon-insert
locknuts.
Check the alignment of the rear fascia to the body and adjust as
necessary.
