Wheel arch trim

Hi I'm looking for a wheel arch trim for the drivers side for my fiat scudo 2004 reg. I realised its been missing and loads of water has come in to the footwells because of that. So anyone selling for spares or know someone who is ?
Thanks in advance

If you have water coming in, it might be the drain points at the bottom of the windscreen. The rubber tubes can get blocked and the water backs up into the fan air intake.

Re: Wheel arch trim

yep id check these too. ^^

unless you have bad rust holes, the wheel arches should not bring any water into the foot wells

Yes ive had this too, they run down into the wheel arch and poke through, rattle them with a old wire coat hanger, a good wiggle etc, should clean them out smile

Re: Wheel arch trim

I lost more than half a wheelarch liner from N/S and all that happened was it killed the horn by filling it with water and snow...
Nothing came inside ... admitedly it was more to the front it was broken off..............
Only suitable and priced replacement came from Autodock ..........
[New...it wasnt that cheap either]

I've on all my vehicles probably or at least I try to about once a year pour boiling water down the scuttle drains that seems to work and clear them out .......
{On some that drain into engine bay ... remove rubber flap thingy ...  That also helps}
I started this when one of my vehicles pretty much lived under a tree and drains blocked up ..............
