Hello, does anyone have a photo showing how to expose the top fasteners for the side skirts please? I can’t find one on the forum or via google and don’t want to remove more trim than necessary. Thank you

 

Also, the side skirt is being removed so that the wing can be removed. Is it necessary to remove the skirt or can the lower wing bolts be accessed by partial side skirt removal? Thank you

 

No photos but the diagrams make the procedure clear.

According to the Workshop Manual, the only other component needing to be removed in advance is the Front Scuff Plate Trim Panel:





Although it says 'remove and discard' the decal, it may be possible to use a heat gun and nylon line to cut through the adhesive without destroying as could be done on the earlier XK8.

That’s extremely helpful thank you. A little more complicated than I was expecting but very clear steps and diagrams. Appreciate you taking the trouble to reply.
