Attn ix owners

[der affe]

i am putting Ix flares and side skirts on my non IX. i have MOST of the clips for the flares and a few of them for the skirts.

i DO NOT however have anything for the bottom attachment on the side skirts. the diagram in realoem does not help much as it looks like there are a few different choices.

what does your car use for this???
need to install my flares and skirts and this is what is holding me up.

Well if they attach the same way as "is" side skirts, then I can help. Do you have a picture of the back of the skirt? Mine attach by sliding little plastic clips on to the skirts and pushing them in to grommets that you have to install on the rockers.

those are a "spike" that goes into a "sealing grommet" they go into the side of the rocker to attach the skirt.

it looks like there is something that goes into the BOTTOM of the skirt then into the body. i can't tell for sure according to the diagram.


i am looking at:
#25
#26
#10
#7
and i am scratching my head

bump!

anyone want to take a peak under their side skirt and give me an idea????

there are ~4 black plastic clips on the underside (like the mtech kit, is skirts, etc) as well as the white plugs/green gromments and body tape.

there are also a couple screws that thread into a black plastic clip thing, I don't remember very well where exactly this is but i think it's on the rear end.
