Title: Fitting F/lift door strips?
Post by: omegod on 01 August 2009, 15:30:15
Got a set and spent the day painting them Z147.

Just ripped the old pre facelift ones off( what a rathertg mess they have left behind) and all the clips are in different bloody places! Any ideas people?

I know I need to drill holes at either end but how are they fixed on Facelifts and what clips/adhesive tape do I need.

I removed all the clips, drilled the two holes either end and used Sikaflex, it sticks like sh1t to a woolly blanket ::)

Oh and don't forget to rust proof the holes you drill ;)
