.... do the air deflectors on the front struts go? I took mine off the other week and can't remember how they fitted. The deflector is a curved plate with a rolled edge on 3 sides. Hole positions allow you to mount it either way around. I'd guess that the rolled edge faces forward and the flat edge points towards the brakes? Can someone confirm please. |

I will have my front wheel off tomorrow, can take a pic a post for you but won't be until evening. Or, check the diagrams in the PET. |

(Although I looked at them on mine and suspected that it makes very little difference.) Oli. |

Thanks Guys, I did look in PET but the part is shown in isolation rather than in position with the strut. |

This shows the whole job from start to finish https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mgrRt0Hyhr0 Take a look from 29:58 for refitting the bit you're interested in. Cheers, Bryan |

Thanks Briggy. For future reference, when I got to fit them, whilst it looks like they could go on either way round, the holes are slightly offset so they don't quite fit the other way. |
