    Anyone have a video on installing mud flap?

    I am not too technical, but would like to install mud flaps on my SR..

    There are 2 that i found
    http://www.ebay.ca/itm/4-PCS-SPLASH-...xWaR~1&vxp=mtr

    and OEM

    http://www.ebay.ca/itm/161933710000?...%3AMEBIDX%3AIT


    Both say they fit Micra 2015.. but a huge difference in price..

    Any recommendations?

    Thanks

    Thanks for those links micra2080. I'm getting my son to do mine. Dealer wanted around $100 to install all 4.

    I was told they are easy to install by ptbo, he said the back wheel has to come off unless you have a 90 degree angle for the drill. I'll attempt the fronts, my son can do the back! I'm ok with a drill, but to drill in my car...not sure!

    I agree, OEM is too $$. ONLY reason I went through them is due to the credit they applied to my account, so all 3 mods will cost me nothing, and I'll get 15% off with a coupon the dealer gave us.

    I was informed that the back flap will need holes to be drilled, but it comes with a template. The front has tabs we can remove to use those existing holes. If you have a 90 degree bit, then I think you can drill without removing the back tire. ptbo put his on himself, I'm sure he'd answer any of your questions, I'm not experienced! This is all what he told me when I was looking into OEM which he has. I know, drill! I thought the same thing!

    There are bumps on the rear for where the holes need to be drilled. Very easy to do.

    I checked there's no holes in the rear, it will need to be drilled, very likely need to have the wheels removed too.. no way i can drill it with my own drill. I guess i will bring them to dealership to get installed in April when i will change my winter tires.

Size:  91.1 KB rally armor mud flaps. if youre good with your hands, you can shape them the way you want. and why you want the rear one? the rearbumper is really slim there,and we havenothing to protect ther... Ithink?
