TF rear wheel arches
Got my 2003 TF back from being serviced a couple of weeks ago and just noticed that there appear to be a cover or liner missing from each of the rear wheel arches (towards the front) there appears to be more of the suspension on view than I remember previously. I am looking for a link to a picture of the rear wheel arches with all the components in place to se what is missing.

Re: TF rear wheel arches
Not sure about the nearside but there is a removeable panel on the off side forward of the "axle" which gives access to alternator belt/pulley, can easily be mislaid if reoved for service.

Re: TF rear wheel arches
Difficult to say - but there isn't a great deal of trim inside the rear wheel arches; unlike the front ones, there is no liner - just the belt cover that Stu mentions. And there is a wheel arch lip cover too, which should always be replaced...
Take some pictures, and let's see whether some eagle eyed soul can pick out what's gone AWOL...
