Top Tailgate Rubber

[Nocturne]

Hi HJ; there should be metal sleeves rectangular shaped with rounded ends, that fit in the body holes to hold the trims (similar idea to the inserts that hold the body badge pins). I didn't notice them when removing the trims & lost a few too! Rares didn't sell them so I visited a wrecker a found a few still attached to old trims.

If you find the right sleeves, the trims will fit properly & tight - you wont need sealant. If I find one I will post a pic (if I find 8 I'll PM you!).

Also I am fitting my chrom tail light surrounds and having trouble getting a close fit, I have been told today by a friend that their should be four plastic lugs?? that fit into the body to take the four pins on the back of the tail light surrounds? I dont remember taking any off when stripping it down. If this is the case are they available from Rares etc.

I'd forgotten about the sleeves, have taken a photo of mine and will post it up tonight.
