Hello,

I have a 96 limited 4runner. I need to remove the fender flare so that I may remove the antenna motor. I have read all of the threads on here including this write-up. http://www.4runners.org/articles/whip/index.html All of these sources mention going in through the wheel well to access the antenna motor. This sounds easy enough but when I tried it, I failed.

I removed the bolts from my fender flare but there is something else holding it in place. I looked through my door jam and it looks like there are some plastic clips holding the top of the fender flare to the fender. I don't know how to release these clips. What do I need to do to remove the fender flare?

Also, the black wheel well lining has two plugs that need to be removed. How do I remove these? Do I just pry them out? Do I access them from the back?

Thanks,

Craig Wilson
