Front underneath cover/undertray

[GreigM]

Hi All,

I was looking under the car at the weekend and found that the front undertray was hanging on with just 1 plastic nut - so I removed this nut and the undertray fell to the floor - it's in a pretty bad state, so have ordered a new one (part # 996.504.527.02) as well as the 6 clamps (999.507.657.09) and approx 10 plastic nuts (999.049.022.40).

Does anyone have photos/pictures or a description of where all the nuts/clamps are attached, so I make sure I re-attach the part correctly?

Thanks for any info you can give.

For a MY2000 GT3 (RoW)?

Here is the parts diagram - let me know if you need the parts list too.

Thanks Loren, I have the part numbers (as in my original post) - your diagram looks like the one from the PET - which unfortunately doesn't show the locations of all the nuts and clamps, just an illustrative sample.

And sorry, yes its a 2000 Mk1 GT3.

Sorry, the following is all the detail that is in the service manual...

Thanks Loren, looks easy enough to try it myself - will take some pics and post them if all is successful.

I replace this part on my 04 Mk2, assuming the Mk1 is similar, the repair should be easy, lacking metalwork damage. The locations for the clips and nuts should be obvious. Check for denting in any metal underbody parts, the seams between abutting metal can get bent, and you may need to tap them flat into place with a hammer. Also, the metal studs holding the nuts can get bent or even broken off. If so, have your shop weld on new ones and prime the area to avoid rust.

Thanks for all the info guys, the parts arrived today, and as the car is at the dealers to get a coolant leak looked at then they are going to fit it free of charge - saves me getting dirty :D

Anyone know where I can find the part number for piece 5 displayed above? (underside panel rear)

Can I order from Sun Coast?
