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
