The answer is probably somewhere in this forum, but I don't see it. Anyone know where I can find a schematic for removal of driver's side fender on an 08 XLT. Finally figured out I have a leak on the firewall seam, now if I can just figure out how to get to it. Or, anyone pulled a fender lately? Any help most appreciated.
