mk2 skirts ?

[ade-5]

I wouldn't mind knowing either, my skirts on my mark 2 look like there hanging on by nothing so hopefully some new clips would sort them,?

Hi,
Tried Rimmer brothers, you need 16 clips for each side, they work out around£66, which I can't afford at the mo,
Yes mark 2 (I think) I'm sure Bob will correct me if I'm wrong.
(Thought I'd better say, I'm female, hence why I put xxxx :kiss:)

Thanks for your help

£66 ouch, just for clips.

£66 ouch, just for clips.

sound like a job for a few screws and a load of tiger seal to me.

These could work out a whole lot cheaper if they are the right ones

I had a problem with the front of my off side one, I used a clear sealer and some G clamps to stick it back together.

There is a proper adhesive for sticking the body kit bits, that doesnt cause rusting.

Reading your first post see they are new sills, not just ones falling off.

Those Pete found look like the ones that go into the side of the body work, there are also screw type ones that go underneath the floor and screw upwards.

You going to Halfway House on Sunday, Ziggy???

Those are the correct ones, but I suspect you might need new brackets to hold the clips In which case see if mgzsturbo2008 (http://www.themgzs.co.uk/vb/private.php?do=newpm&u=2192) has still got some.

when I pulled my one away from the body those metal ones were rusted and had pulled away.

I bought a set of ali ones but looks a right pain to get them all off, then lined up with the plastic clips.

Think my one had a bit of a bash on the o/s front and had twisted the first clip backwards, so it didnt sit right. But undoing the screw type things underneath allows you to pull the cover away and semi sort it.

Lots here http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/HONDA-ACCORD-CIVIC-CRV-LOWER-SIDE-SKIRT-SILL-TRIM-CLIPS-EXTERIOR-ODYSSEY-PRELUDE-/400327394618?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item5d355f453a&clk_rvr_id=469475647820

Would a body shop have these clips or brackets? Or do they glue them on?

[peterzs]

Think the metal ones are bonded onto the sills.

The plastic ones fit into the cars bodywork.

You then slide the sills onto the plastic clips.

Well that what it looked like when I pulled the sill away!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'll bring some of my metal ones up tomorrow so that its easier to see, whats, what!!

If Ziggy has bought the sills, are the metal brackets still bonded on.

This is all on my Mk2, dont know if the Mk1 would be different.

:-D:-D:-D

[ade-5]

anyone know anywhere else I could get these metal brackets from?

[finyuk2005]

+1 for that!! took mine off to find what was once metal all over the place
