Umm...In it's most simple explaination, cut off the old ones, and weld on the new!

I think Nick should have stated that on one side at least, there is already a second arch panel fitted. In which case, you've two to cut off on that side.

Is it only the arch kit you have.. not the full wammy.... that involves having the rear lights etc out... goes right round ??

The arch does from the seal.. up.. to just by the bottom of the primer.. ? at the top of that.. "indent" along the maestro.. ?
