ground effects removal on a 92

After you remove all the screws on top of the ground effects and the underside ones how do you get them off the body on a 92 RS. I thought they were the same as my Z but i guess not.

There is also a sheetmetal nut that holds them on in the rear quarter panel. You'll have to remove the lower back seat and carpet, as well as some foam-like sound padding to get to it with an 11mm socket. Best I remember, the nut should be about 6" in front of the rear wheel well.


Be sure to tape your extensions and sockets together cause dropping them in that part of the car is a PITA.
