Some self tapping screws?
Yep, self tapping screws. means they can be removed easily if damaged.
thanks cyberbob
yeah, I just checked the box and they have supplied pop rivets, so dump them and drill a small 2mm (say) hole and then stainless steel self tappers, nothing too long I guess?
Yep, 2mm pilot hole and then 10mm-15mm long self tapping screws will be fine, I already had some black ones in my screw box so used those. I would have thought shipping with slef tapping screwa would be cheaper and easier than pot rivets? Maybe it is so you get it done at the dealer...

Ok, great thanks again. I'll pick those self tappers up and get them on at the weekend.

Hi
How did the Gtechniq C4 Permanent Trim Restorer fair on the plastic trim on your Grandland? Any pics? Did it wear well and protect?
Thanks
Yh really good. I have just reapplied it to my car as it was just starting to fade in some areas.
