Question For The Geeks

Recommended Posts

Anyone know what the clip / fixing is that holds the centre of the gti front grille on?

 

Its the clip above the Peugeot badge.

 

There's just a hole of randomness in my grille and a corresponding random hole in the slam panel.

 

I have no clues.

I've always used a nut and bolt, once it nay gave been a captive nut.

There's never been anything in that hole on any 205 that I've owned - the grill is normally only held in place by the two outer upper bolts and the three lower plastic pegs.

Yep, that's what I thought.

 

Hmm, so why the holes?? :blink:

Maybe it was designed to have a clip and then Peugeot decided to save a penny per car by not fitting it?

On both of my GTIs there is a self tapper through the grille into a spire nut in the centre.
