I and my son are starting to restore an '86 RX7. First problem is that despite removing all of the bolts that we could find/see -- we cannot seem to get the right front fender loose. It appears to be held on by some hidden bolts -- but we cannot locate them or find the information on the web. We downloaded the technical manual -- but information on fender removal is missing. Does anyone know where those last bolts are located ?? Thanks for any help. Donald

In order to remove a fender you have to separate bumper from the fender. You'll feel the nuts as you stick your hand all the way up tapered section and take 10mm socket with swivel and remove 5 or 6 of them. Other ones should be all visible.

P.S.: It's really fun to remove the one you can barely feel with socket :) heh
