and some m6x50 bolts and nuts

drill some 9mm holes in outer sill and fit insert




drill a 6.5 mm hole in side skirt and then put the bolt through skirt and into the new threaded insert





no more droopy side skirts



Total cost was about £30

Hope this helps

would of only taken about an hour but there was a little but of rot that needed sorting

 

Great solution mate. cheap and easy

 

looks much better

 

Cheers, it was this or spend £100 on them alloy ones and tbh i think this it better way of doing it



if anybody else does it make sure you get the alloy inserts and not the steel ones

 

you do know what happens when alloy rubs on steel?

id go for steel rivnuts!

good idea that! nice and striaght aswell

 

Cheers

I did use steel rivnuts but it was fucking hard to crimp them in then sprayed waxoil through the holes
