Fitting A Wheelchair Hoist To C4 Grand Picasso

[Jezza103]

Hi Everyone. I have just bought  a 2009 C4 Grand Picasso, which I am very pleased with. I want to remove the o/s/r interior  panel to fit my wheelchair hoist. Is there anything I should know about removing it. I have a friend who can fabricate a bracket for me. I intend to cut a slot in the panel for the bracket to pass through.. This will probably be a little higher than the torch/boot light.

I have not tried to remove the panel yet because it is difficult for me to get in to the boot. If I know what tools I need in advance it would make life a whole lot easier for me.

 

Thanks Guys

basicly you just need a couple of torx drivers and out the panel will come. Anychance you could put  a pic up of the bracket hes using and the mounting points for the brackets please

Hi Thank you for the reply. I have still got the hoist in my other car at the moment. The guy who will fit it is a welder by trade. I think he wants me to remove the panel so he can see what he is looking at. I think he is affraid of damaging the panel whilst removing it. He is going to remove the hoist from my Astra and fabricate a bracket for  my Picasso.

Thanks again
