Post am i being stupid, again?!
title says it all really, so your probably thinking, yeh he is, next topic..

well my problem is that i took the wing off today to see if my new wing will fit before i spend £70 getting it sprayed..
and when putting old wing back on (i didnt putll all bolts on with new wing) i cant get that bastard of a bolt in, the bottom one on the inside, now after some mild - very bad swearing at my car, i gave up, thought id consult the clever people!
anyway am i being stupid again?#
just seems stupid to put a bolt were you cant get it in cos of the sweeps
oh and also in my run of good luck i lost the small metal clip at the bottom of the wing, where could i come across another one?

thanks

is this a rear wing?

If so, you need to put all the bolts through their respective holes and offer up the wing. Then, turn them until they grip the clip in the rear wing and in tighten them up, each bolt a little at a time. Then, the wing will come up into place.

Useful to have a third hand I find.
