What is the easiest way to install the front mudflaps on a disco 1 1999? It appears the front does not have the same mount as the rear. Also, to remove the rear mudflaps I assume you have to drill them out to remove the old circular bolted ones? Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
Yes, you will need to drill out the factory installed rivets and replace with standard (or metric) hardware.
RN supplies the replacement Mudflaps and hardware (if needed).

Hope this helps.
Thanks for the quick reply. I was able to drill one side out then I got smart and used a roto wizard to cut the next one off. Thus I have the back one on and am happy for that. It appears my front mudflaps I bought from rovers north need metal brackets of some sort to be attached to the underside of my disco 1. Otherwise I will have to send back which is kind of crazy for a 24 dollar item. Any input on the attachment for the front mudflaps?
If memory serves me right... the fixing kit for the front is similar to the rear. Flat bar with 3 holes to attach hardware. Keeping in mind that you 'sandwich' the flap between the flat bar and the inner fender (wing) skirt.
