to get the bolts easier in.

The three that hold the new front undetr tray on? I found they were very tight to fasten (was only using cheap ratchet screwdriver) Think it may just have been the locktite on then though

No these are the ones that hold the rear trim on to the bracket that attaches to the rear axle, It has two little plastic parts that are semi bolt shapped and designed to collapse as tightened but they came with no nuts inside (think I am probably just going to go to hardware store and get two nylon nuts in stainless but wondered if others had nuts attached with there bits.

But on top of that did the plastic nut that locates into the long threaded part from the subframe (1K0 501 682) have a nylon nut or something else in inside the plastic holder?

Hi Rich,
The nut that you refer to is an expanding nut. Part # N908 338 01 for the correct cover. For some unknown reason I didn't get this :rolleye:, so I just used one of those S shaped clips that are used with the screws on the other panels.
Itis this bracket that the large N/S cover is attached too. But for the cover you are attaching you need a stud coming out of it for that plastic captive nut in the cover to attach to. I havn't found it listed in ETKA yet.
Regards.

Correction...found it.
The OS bracket part# 1K0 581 682, as we know.
The NS bracket part# 1K0 581 681.
And you need 2 bolts Part# N905 483 05 and 2 nuts part# N 901 838 02.
The bracket part# 1K0 825 221 is used for the cover part# 1K0 825 206A which is that large cover by the exhaust pipe.
Regards.
