Default Bodykit side skirts - S2 ERST, help needed...

As some of you may know (well most actually) mt car is an xr3i shell...

Therefore it didn;t origianlly have the holes for the sideskirts in the sills...

My side skirts have been hanging on by 2 screws for absolutely ages and I now want to do it properly...

Thing is, what size do the holes for the sideskirt locating strips need to be and what size do the holes for the sideskirt riv-nuts and screws need to be??

I haven't got a clue and don;t want to mess it up totally, cheers

James, have you actually got a set of the plastic "hangers" for the skirts?

the holes are the thickness of the plastic rivets, ford sell to fit strips,
and the lower captive nuts, holes were the thickness of the captive nuts themselves

they all gotta line up though, id make a paper template or something james,

Those pics do help, cheers

Another question, if you look at the sideskirts and the arch trims, if seems to can join these together underneath in the way on a screw or similar

I can't see anything on Ford's computer than indicates this, so why are the holes there??
