Hello.
I wonder if anyone can help - I have made my van bodywork a lockdown restoration project. I have a slight issue - the RHS brackets for my sliding door track cover were so badly corroded they no longer exist. This is for the drivers side of my vehicle which does not have a sliding door, I cannot find new brackets anywhere.
Does anyone know where I might be able to find these brackets or can someone provide dimensions for me to get some new brackets fabricated please?
Tx.
Nik.

Re: Sliding Door Track Cover Brackets
On my early air cooled they were literally 15mm wide steel strips bent at 90. With a tab that matches on the cover and a self rapper that connects the 2. Not sure if these are OG. But I welded 4 more the same back on . 2 per side. Think it was about 30-40mm long on the body and then comes out probably 15-20mm for the panel to join. I wouldn’t try and buy some they weren’t complex. Hope this helps

Thanks for your reply, the dimensions are useful.
I will get some made up and fitted to the van.
Cheers.
