Okay, here's the deal. You unscrew the three screws, stick the mudguard on, put the screws back on. Couldn't be simpler, right?

Well, on my rear tires the hole there are only two screws, and there is a hole which looks like it should have a screw, but doesn't. And the hole isn't even completely there. At the moment the mudguard is just screwed in with the two screws but it moves a bit.

Should I just punch a hole there and use that clip thing?

Yup, it worked for me and they are still on (but they sure hold a lot of water after I wash it - got to bend them to let the water out)

Drill a pilot hole in the dimpled spot. Then use one of the metal speed nut clips to provide a place for the screw to hold.

you can also use a punch, an awl, or sissors.

mine don't hold any water after washing, there is a drain hole in them for this.

i install my rear mug guards myself..it did not seem to have any problem..i do not even took my rear wheels off..and they are tight and will hold on for a life time

I only used the two existing holes (I hate drilling any holes). The two screws seem to hold it fine.

I did it like mackdaddy sez, "Drill a pilot hole in the dimpled spot. Then use one of the metal speed nut clips to provide a place for the screw to hold."

DAMN! There are 2 little bitch sized drain holes in them! Mine were plugged with sand grains. Thanks for pointing out the drain holes Fast Daddy Car! Now I have 4 larger ones thanks to my trusty drill!
