Hi everyone,

Driving today I noticed the bash panel fell onto my legs from under the steering wheel.

Am I missing a piece of trim?

The panel is held on with 3 10mm nuts.

Either the nuts were not put back on (common) or the panel has pulled over the nuts.

Remedy, refit the panel with the three nuts and penny washers.

A lot of them end up missing completely.
Very old school the way they are fitted.

I haven't got one of those!
Were they fitted to all models or just later facelifts?

EDIT: Looking on Eurospares from MY03 onwards

Late type and GS only I think. Both my GS had them and the Spyder 02 and 3200 did not.
