Replacing door sill rubber clips

Post by nimike »

A number of clips have broken off the front passenger side and the drivers rear. Does anyone have any tips on refitting these before I start (apart from the obvious).

Thanks

Mike

They're dead easy to change fella and only cost pennies form the stealer, 6p each IIRC, so get a bag full! :lol:

HI,
You usually get left with half a clip in each hole.
A good grip with sum pliers usually does the trick by pulling on the old clip sharply.
Whilst the hole's open a squirt of aerosol waxoyl should help rust prevention.
(see the water sloshing in sills thread)
