1 each side? Are you sure? Mine's got 2 each side.

One goes in from the edge of the wheel arch, and other (Which is a right bitch to get to!) is on the inside of the arch, facing outwards.

Cheers bud. Tried getting some new bolts from VX, but they couldn't work out what ones they were (Fools!), and they ended up giving me the wrong ones.
