Fender removal on a 220D ?'s

Hi
tomorrow I am changing Radiator core suports.

How much trouble am I looking at for the fender removal - they look like they are ?glued? at tyhe bottom.

I know the core support is spot welded but is it welded in places as well?

Thanks

Chuck

Cool

Fender replacement on that car isn't any fun unless it has already been replaced!

You will need to un bolt it completely & then spend a while with heat gun & putty knife to remove the undercoat & glue!!

The fenders are off!

Thanks for the reply .

Once I started I remembered having to do this same thing in the 70's when I was a Auto Body -Biginner. It wasent fun then but heck I'm stubborn and not too bright .

So all four fenders are off the Core suports are cut out and awate the new(old 617 A ) Hope it goes in on Sat. ( I'm not the Mech gust the owner grunt)

Thanks

Chuck
