right folks i was hoping someone could help me out, when i disassembled the rear wing assembly off my car (about 10months ago) I was awfully organised, i removed every seal and carefully balanced them on top of a box in the garage, i didnt label them or anything and the pictures i took only tell me half the story!
i was hoping someone could identify locations for all of these parts and bits and bobs.



top row left - seal runs along edge of inner wing and onto the dpost
top row right - mud flap, sits in a sort of mudflappy position at the bottom of the wing (does it join onto the end of the splash panel?)

bottom row from the left
-not sure, any ideas?
-runs vertically up the front of the wing, sits against the dpost
-not sure, any ideas?
-bolts and bits (see below)
-light and reflector, i just drill 2 holes into the side of the wing and put them at a jaunty angle right? :roll:

bolts and bits


the bolts and spacers are from the wing to dpost mounts
i presume the screw and the plastic bobbin, where do they go?
what about the metal disky things?
the bolts with the metal tab... I presume I need one more?


next time i promise to be organised, rather than just leaving things in the boot, footwell and in various locations in my garage....!


thanks a million!

Third in on the bottom row is glued vertically to the inside of the wing at the forward end, to seal the wheelhouse from the door area.

The metal disks are closeouts for the base unit, I'm not sure why they are in with wing fasteners. Yes you need one more of the bolt plates.

thanks colin/vern, I also found the metal reinforcement for the mud flap, going to have to make a new one as half of it has been eaten!, ill look in the boot for another 5/16unf fancy bolt! closeouts must have got mixed in when i just shoved everything into the garage!

where exactly does the rubber seal glue on vern? cant quite place it from memory...
 
Bottom left looks like the rubber seal on door step under the s/steel step trim!
Next is the riveted on wing seal
Then that small one looks like the seal that sits on the sill below the rear door pillar!
Screw with plastic fixing is lower rear wing to rear valence,the plastic fixing fits into a sq hole on lower rear wing!
