Joking aside, the correct fixings will find their way on to my car soon enough, as I just couldn't abide knowing that something wasn't fixed on in the OE manner. Sad but true!

Hi Chaps, local MDC didnt stock anything like it but they suggested Xpart in Christchurch. Rang Rimmer Bros and ordered 6 for £14.94 incl P&P and they will be here for the weekend. Don't know if they worked out cheaper or more expensive as Xpart but it would have cost me a few quid just to drive from Holbury to Christchurch to get them. So another fun weekend, put undertray back on (Properly this time) and replace the fuse I blew trying to reset the Oil change interval last weekend. Thanks for all your input. Paul

I'd rather buy some cable ties or metal wire and attach it that way. Nothing like a good bit of British engineering. :lol:

I agree newcy, I am going to change mine to some nice stainless domehead bolts (as I have some at home) so I can feel confident when at speed....

Have a look in Demon Tweeks on line catalogue. They show the 'Dzus' fasteners ,(Which is what the original fitted fixings are ) all the bits, washers , clips, and fasteners .. They have different lengths though , and unfortunately I dont know the correct size , because most of mine are on the roads somewhere .
Cheaper than the Rover part when i asked . Last edited by DerekS; 11th February 2009 at 23:55.. |
