Belly plate
« on: May 11, 2010, 10:31:02 pm »
Hi.Just a quick question.Do ED30's have a belly plate? Had mine in at stealers the other week then took it to my mates garage to make sure all was in order underneath and noticed no belly plate! Can somebody shed some light on the issue?
Thanks

Yes it should have one!

So either it's fallen off because the dealer didn't screw it back correctly or they forgot to put it back on.

Did you let Joes GTi near your car, he has a habit of leaving these on slip roads.  :evilgrin:

Hi.Thanks for your help.Spoke to stealers this morning.
They have said it's only a small plate at the front!
Is this correct?

The belly pan aka the undertray isn't what I describe as a small piece of plastic.
Here is a pic of about half of it. There are four more bolts holding it in place on the other side.


If not fully bolted in it tends to fall off after a while. Now where is Joe...   :laugh:
