Hi all.

I'm new to the world of heralds and is subsequently my first restoration.

I need to remove my rear quarter and centre valance. I have found two bolts behind the tail light and two ok the under side by the tail light. Where are the rest located please??

Any help is much appreciated

On right hand drive vehicles the driver side rear quarter valance can be removed by simply removing the spire bolts inside the boot area (the heads may be hidden by years of crud and factory sound deadening bitumen but are there somewhere) unfortunately the passenger side can only be removed by firstly removing the petrol tank which can be a bit of a pig.

hi
Sorry its abit late but yes you will need to remove the fuel tank to get access to the passenger panel. When i did mine used plenty of wd40 and came off the next morning very easy. Nothing is ever simple!!
Good luck.
