I can’t imagine any tape being robust enough to fix them securely although if you are able to use several of the screws it may do. I’d use sikaflex it’s good stuff! Landrover - turning owners into mechanics since 1948

Thanks for that ! (I half expected someone to say change the battery and add an earth strap) |

I doubt that anything other than the proper screws in the mounting points will have the strength to hold onto a flappy bit of rubber in all weathers. It is surprising how strong a couple of self tappers can be - get 'em fitted properly or you will be buying another set later |

thanks for that, I have just managed to get the front 2 flaps fitted, a few self tappers in, they screwed in really well, no glue. |

I fitted these to mine a few weeks ago, got the screw holes aligned in the end and added another 2 screws to each flap so they are more secure |

all done, took me ages, they look really good, when you have no wrist movement and painful arthritic hands everything is difficult.
