Tire Flap
I was driving in the snow today and i heard a pop, so I got out and there was a big rubber covering that goes on in front of the itre in the tire well that was barely hanging on. Does anyone know how I can put this back on? Thanks.

nick,
You must be referring to the inner fender or liner. They're attached using a number of the plastic expanding connectors through holes that should be fairly obvious when you hold the liner up in place. Bad thing is they tend to rip at the mounting holes when torn out in snow/ice conditions you describe, and you may have to use some flat washers to get them secure. In the future you may want to spray them with some teflon spray to minimize ice build up, which is probably why it pulled out in the first place when turning the tire/wheel against the build up. Hope that makes sense. Glenn
