Perfect replacement
Replacement flap was a a perfect fit. Only difficulty was removing original, damaged flap. Once once removed this flap slid right on.

Exploded view of equipment was extremely helpful
I had no idea what his part would be named before arriving at your site. The exploded view of the equipment made it child's play to select the correct one. By my own fault, I ordered two of this part and even without an account with your website the customer service people were able to walk me through the return process and generate the documentation necessary to return the extra. Overall a fantastic experience!

I googled how to replace the rubber flap "trail shield" and found most responses included the need to remove one of the back wheels. Well that takes replacing a bracket and special tools (NO GO).
I took a better look and was able to simply unscrew/release the bracket holding the metal bar attached to the wheel and move the wheel out of the way just enough to slide off the old/on the new flap. Done. Would have been <15min if I was not mislead by the wheel issue.

Sprayed WD40 along flap and onto rear axle bracket screws the day before new flap arrived.
This made removal of screws and flap very easy,
Removed brackets and moved axle so flap could be slid out.
Installed new flap and replaced brackets.....easy, peasy!
