What are they attached with as standard? I assume screws as getting a riveter in is not easy...but the holes in the pillar are bigger that the holes in the metal strips....so I assume the screw does actually go from the door side?

Plastic barbed fittings iirc

held in by small screws/hex head bolts. can take a couple pics of my fixings in the morning if you like?

Please do as these are 'on the list'.

Not what I remember from the 1990 twin slider I sold, but could be wrong.

mine and a van i removed a set from had small bolts

of the 4 fixings, obviously you need the door off, the top and bottom i find easiest access is to tape an 8mm socket filled with blu-tack and poke this through to hinge fixing hole. on the middle two they are slightly offset so access to the side of the hinge mount strip , that said most ive done have been secured with pozi screws

So by bolts you mean self tappers? I think I know what ian is referring to but not those..these need a proper metal fastener...maybe I will check ETKA..

I go take picky of one now for you

new i had a pair someplace , they are handed ,this is an O/S

yes self taps but sometimes seen them with hex head (8mm) more usually pozi,i can do a BOGOF
