I've tried to attach a picture, hope it's worked. I tried to fit a rh sill channel (MWC1086) today, no problem with fixings to bulkhead but I'm unsure about fixings to the tub. Looking at my exploded view drawings, it says to use M6 bolts and a nut grip which, I assume fit in the slots in the end bracket that is attached to the sill channel. But how does this fit to the tub with those two big holes you can see? I'm clearly missing something but it's been ages since I took it all apart so any help is welcome. Thanks.

is there no access to underneath the sill so the bolts can be done up into the blind nut grips which will be in the new channel?

The end of your sill rail should have an upstand, like the one in this link to YRM The holes in the upstand should match the holes in your tub. The height/position of the upstand is adjustable. By the look of it your holes have corroded out a bit and so larger (Like penny) washers might be needed. Look through the thimbnail pictures on the YRM site to see different views of the sill rail and upstand bracket.

Thanks.
Am I right in thinking the bottom corner of the seatbox and a bracket are fixed also through these two holes?

Yes, the seat box bolts through the same two holes. What bracket are you thinking of?

Thank you for the above. I identified it from the same source as that. Don't know what I'd do without those exploded views!
