See my advert in For Sale/Wanted!
Got an 'as new' set for sale, for 60 quid (as opposed to £100-ish new) Only changing them, as I splashed out for the Mudstuff storage nets... James

Hmmm...I'm not 100% sure how they are fitted, but yesterday was the first time that I had heard of this company making these panels. This is because I came across a thread with a set of these for sale. I can't remember what forum I was on tho
I'll have a look and get back to you. The seller might be able to give you more advice... |

On the USW, they actually simply 'pop' into position into the centre of the existing Defender plastic trim.
held firmly in place with double sided foam tape.

Double sided foam tape that requires beefing up with a decent quality body tape that doesn't fail when it gets too hot or too cold.
£100 is enough money for what after all is are bits of ply covered in carpet. Steve. Owned numerous Land Rover vehicles of all shapes and sizes over the decades.

^ true words and duly noted.
are your rizla thin panels still exposed, or have used another method? it's a mare that i check both sides when exiting tesco's, what with all the 'rush mum's' + brats, i don't need some self enduced dings...  |

I've had mine fitted for about a year now, they've never popped out through hot or cold (I drove to the south of France this summer). Perfectly happy with them, I often carry a load of gear in the back and since fitting them have had no issues with inside out dings....
If I had the time I'd build myself a house, but I dont! |
