anyone drafting behind a car when the belly pan falls off probably prefers to run over plastic than a chunk of metal. The factory under engine pan on my car is held on by molded hooks in front, fender washer sized quick nuts along the sides ( one or 2 each side 1.25" diameter) and 3 each 1/2" diameter washered screw in back the 4th one has stripped out/ fellen out and I haven't found a larger replacement yet. It's a 98 Jetta and it needs more belly pan from there on back. The pan falling off and me not willing to put holes thru the undercoating to prevent it rusting out has slowed me down.

Hope the next mounting method works out. keep us posted. Thanks!!
