I was selling a pair of these a few weeks back and a few people expressed concern over whether they will fit





To be fair, I did have to get the dremel out and take about 5mm off one of the bottom faces

ooo i like, how much?

[mandarinvx]

I think they were about £9.50+VAT per side, then + paint - take a while to come in to stock tho

[The Batman]

Thanks for the link It doesn't seem to mention how fidly the three screws are, or how much needs to be cut off the bottom tho They took about three weeks to arrive

[JawZ]

Yeah, I know exactly how fiddly those 3 screws are

After I dropped one into the door I had to invent the "JawZ screw fishing pole®" and later on develop a special secret technique to prevent any further screws from dropping into the doors

[mandarinvx]

I just went for a bit of masking tape on the outside, and blue-tac on the driver - the posi-drive one was the worse by far Managed to loose the 'push-out' centre bits of the rivets on the trim, now in the bottom of the door somewhere - best of all, Vaux told me that the little rivets don't exist and tried to sell me a couple of screws instead (even tho I had the rivets with me!)

Anyone got any idea where they can be purchased from, a part number would be sweet. Reason for change? Some scrote decided to drill through the entire frame of the window (including the window which went smash) then tried to run off with the stereo (didnt even manage to do that properly)!!! Little arse munch has now left a poorly finished patch job from insurance company and a shite load of shattered glass rolling round under the passenger seat, ggggrrrrrrrr!

If you want a job doing propoerly - do it yourself!

[barrybethel]

good job you explained to me what colour "bone colour" is......

[JawZ]

They are pretty easy to do, took me maybe 2-3 hours, including sanding down the required 5mms

[mandarinvx]

I got them from the Lotus dealers Part numbers are A117U0124F (RH) and A117U0123F (LH)

What are the stickers needed for?

[mandarinvx]

You need two on the inside of the car, as they cover the holes you use to access the screws that hold the base in place


On the Lotus mirror you need one to cover the screw that holds the outer part of the mirror to the base:

so will i have to get some when i order them parts 2moro. cant you put the platic covers back on , on the inside?

[mandarinvx]

Yep, you'll have to ask for some (they should keep them in stock )
