I used Halfords self-tappers as they have a hex heads which should make subsequent removal easier if necessary. I also fitted rubber seals to the outer edge (similar to a tailgate seal) to keep water out and I also added silent coat sound deadening to reduce road noise. Finally I made brackets for the rear ones, the brackets are sandwiched between the engine bay shields and the chassis rails to fix them securely.

Where can I get arch liners like these? Was thinking they were a good idea last week but assumed they aren't made for this bus.

I got mine from Brickwerks but they're showing out of stock at the moment. They're pretty flimsy things and you should expect to do some fettling to get them fitted, properly but once they're done it's worth it.
