It's easy mate, if I can do it anyone can

Have a look underneath at the back boxes and you'll see the vacuum units that operate the flaps. Shine a torch down the inner pipes on both sides and you'll see the flaps. Wedge them open and wire the linkages in that position with a piece of strong wire, job done. Probably easier with an extra pair of hands but once you take a look and understand how they're set up it'll make sense.

A8 Doc posted some pics in the relevant D3 section back in 2011 so take a look at them if it'll help.
