Hi
Anyone know how to remove the wheel arch trims on KZTE ? I removed the bolts inside the wheel arch but it is still 'vas'
There must be a way to maneuver/unclip the trim. I am trying not to break it...
How do i remove wheel arch trim on KZTE ?

With the nuts off it must come free. It's probably just bound fast over time or maybe someone has stuck some glue in there. Try prying it gently along it's length (use a rag behind the tool against the paintwork).
When your road comes to an end ...... you need a HILUX!.

It's not about waiting for storms to pass. It's about learning to dance in the rain.

P.S. If you don't have a pry tool you can use an old fork or spoon handle that has a curvature in the end, just sharpen the tip a little.
Also just check that there are no screws that have been put in on the inside lip.
