I've got them fitted on my van, but now I've got the BFG's on they catch on full lock?

I thought they were off a Citroen to start with

Deffo not original VW ones as VW ones dont clip onto wheel arches. VW ones bolt through the body a few inches back from the arch and look like these ....

any tips for getting the plastic push in fixing off without breaking it on my front mudguards. ( on the long thin bit that goes up the body) i would like to have a clean up in the area so they've got to come off. 2 nuts no problem but the plastic fitting that goes into the body panel looks like it could break easily :?

They do break easily but you can get new ones which you will probably need anyway. Gunzel does them
