Side Skirts Help Please

Could any one help please.

Got some S Skirts to put on.

Read all the info, And got some tips from Ady and Co

Went to BMW for clips and the chap ask if I needed both sides and I said yes.

(Still with me)

Got home and opened the packets and I have the following

4 White
10 2 piece X head and Screw 07 13 0 702 966
10 1 piece with flat heads on. 07 13 1 480 419

(Still with me I hope)

Now the question.

Is that enough to do both sides
(there are 4 yellow ones on the skirts already)

BMW charged me £8.50 + vat, Is that the going rate? or have I got the wrong clips?

Advice please

Regards

I'm told that

4 white ones are 2 per side near the back wheel..
the x heads go underneath and up into the sill (bottom of skirt to the bottom of the car) 5 per side
the others slide onto the brackets & clip into the bodywork 5 per side
plus the 4 that go into the top (4 per skirt that is)

hope that makes sense, dictated to me from one who knows (not me)

According to that, I must be 4 short

The 4 that go in the top, or do you reuse the old ones?

Thanks for the input.

Can I use the yellow ones that are on the S Skirt, or are they just for the 'S' ?

There are 2 of them on each side, next to each other at one end?

Thanks
