Santa brought me some mudflaps :D

Fitted them today, the fronts are fine but the rear spring grip mountings a cheap and nasty, the screws as I tightened them up the thread slips out of the hole in the spring mounting clip and are not very secure on the panel.

I will be contacting the dealer when open to see if there are additional steps taken when fitted by workshop.

I think I'll have to get some slightly coarser threaded self tapping flanged screws, all the screws in the kit were the same. Yes this is the official Honda set.

A bit naff if you ask me! :(

To top it all off I think my fingers have fallen off in the cold :o

Cheers for that, I did wonder, if there was someone with instructions. I tried it with clips on mudguard offered upto panel then screwed up.

Maybe I should have asked here first, doh!

😊

I hope it's dry (ish) tomorrow😬

With respect.
I’ve never understood mudflaps. They trap dirt and water between the mudflap
and the bodywork and they are easily damaged.
The main reason that I don’t understand them is that they are not that effective.
