Rears are a doddle. Fronts take a little more effort but take your time, look at the instructions and you should have no problem. Order from Dan at Duckworths and they will also help you with advice if you need any when fitting.  2010 HSE TD4 auto, Biscay Blue, Almond Leather, facelift front and rear, detachable towbar, front & rear mudflaps, bib spoilers, clear high level brake light, smooth rear wiper, colour coded door handles.

The instructions for the fronts were devised by a drunken monkey and then transferred to " Etch-a-Sketch" style drawings by Stevie Wonder to finally provide the pictorial leaflet you will get to enable you to finish the job , allow twice as long as you think you need, then add a bit , but when they are fitted they are very nice indeed. again a big + for Duckworths brilliant service , and don't forget to tell them you are a forum member  2009 GS Auto Zermatt Silver - Sold June 21 after 10 years of ownership

MartynB helped me with my fronts as i couldnt figure the instructions. Dan at Duckworth's supplied them and his brother gave me advice over the phone. It was a team effort but they got done eventually

So, I fitted a set of OEM mudflaps. The rear ones were very easy to fit, but the front ones are the work of the devil. Once I had deciphered the overly complicated cartoon instructions and farted about with the left hand one for a while, I eventually worked it out, so the right hand one was a relative doddle. The fixings that came with them were a joke. Thank goodness for my little jar of odds and ends in the garage!

I'm pleased with the overall result.....
