Here you go...hopefully picture is here, still cant figure this:confused:
Anyway, the fixing brackets were welded to stainless steel strips & with some heavy duty bonding tape they stick onto the panels so no drilling & fitting inserts. Time will tell whether the bond holds but i gave them a bloody good tug & they wont budge.

Neat job, and as usual your car looks great, but I'm still not sold on light guards. :)

Thanks for taking the time to put a picture up though fella.
 
LPG tank back in (phew!) tensioned the straps and then I fiddled with the cubby box. Carpets and sound proofing done and we'll see if she starts tomorrow.
 
Today was a day of P38 highs and lows.
High = fitted my new MkIII sat nav system. Works a treat and finally the screen in the dash does something.
Low = LPG system is being erratic, despite a recent service. LPG fuel level is all over the shop, and I had to flick back and forth to petrol several times on the 35 minute journey to work. If I didn't know better I'd say there was air in the system. I might try topping it up with LPG tomorrow to see if that helps matters.
 
Took a grinder to it to cut the last of the rust out, got ****ed off with the amount I was cutting out so went to the other one and cut some good metal panels out to fix tge other one :eek:
 
Hi Mate,

I got mine second hand off the bay from P38 Spares (i was going to paint them anyway so wasn't bothered if they were faded etc). TBH i wasn't expecting the modified brackets until i got them & so i'm not sure if these type brackets are readily available. I was thinking these were a one-off previous owner had made but there is a full set on the bay with the same brackets - see link

They are a bloody good idea & i dont mind producing drawings from mine if anybody wants to get some made. There's also some pics on my profile of the brackets & fitment etc.
 
Very true, i cleaned up each surface & used some 3M tape we use to bond glass panels to carcasses for the furniture we manufacture. Hopefully it will last...fingers crossed. If not i'll have to get the drill out.
Hope you get the rangie back on the road soon fella.
 
Changed the air compressor... nice easy 5 min job, and rides like your on air again (so it should !!)
