Mudflap Install Questions

jm27000 · Dec 31, 2014

Hi All - I just received some mudflaps via e-bay. They seem to be an OEM style - they match up nicely with the fender and the holes match up with buttons in the fender liner - They've got "Axella" molded into them..

My question is: 'Does anyone know how to install them?' The flaps were shipped with some sheet metal screws, but the holes line up with plastic buttons that seem to hold on the fender liners. Before I go prying things apart, can anyone confirm whether these buttons are plastic pop-rivets? If not, can I drill into these?

Attached are the instructions from Mazda on installing their mud flaps.

Get 4 clip nuts for the fronts. If you don't want cutting/drilling the rear wheel liner, use 3M automotive double sided tape to attach to liner. Mine has held up well.

Thanks, I was thinking about the tape - or maybe RTV silicone. I'll definitely get the clips now that I understand the fronts.

Opted for tape over PU or RTV seal due to cure time which I dint have.

Anyone know where to get some clip nuts to install these? I also just ordered some of the eBay mud guards but I doubt they come with them...I'm a little worried about the front guards
