that, or doing the nearest center one last out first in works too.cn90 wrote: 30 Jan 2026, 12:06 If the broken plastic part is towards the rear of the splash guard, this happens bc ppl undo these bolts last (during oil change). If you remove the front 5 bolts first, the front splash guard hangs down and can break one of both rear parts bc the weight of the splash guard is towards the front.
To avoid breaking the rear parts of the splash guard.... ALWAYS remove the 2 rear bolts first. Then as you remove the 5 bolts, loosen them first, this way, it does not create cracks in the plastic. As you remove the 5 bolts, support the splash guar with your hand.
Back to the original question...just drill a hole in the remaining plastic and use zip tie. I did that 10 years ago, so far so good.
