How to remove wheel arch trim on disco 4

How do I remove the wheel arch trim on Disco 4?

I note from a disco 3 video that you need to remove front grill and headlight, but the disco 4 wheel arch trim seems to be different, so any pointers would be much appreciated.

thanks in advance,

R.

The trickiest part I found was pulling up the release pins for the headlights! Don't think they had been used for a while. Ended up using some strong thin rope, made a loop and gave it a good pull Shocked

On from Nick's advice - i used the claw of my hammer to prise the headlamp release pin up Shocked

Below is a decent guide for removing grill / headlights etc:

Nothing like a hammer to get things sorted! Laughing

thanks for the video, very helpful, might even make one of me removing the wheel arch (if I don't make a hash of it Shocked )
