Styling Door trim fasteners.

[Albert Alfvag]

Hello everyone.

I'll keep it short.

I have my panda 4x4, but the doors are taken from a regular fwd panda, which means that they don't have the plastic knobs on the side where the black side trim panell is attached.

I tried to attach the trim with double sided adhesive foam tape, but it doesn't seem to be holding up. Does anybody know if, and where, I can buy those plastic thingies so I can attach them myself to the doors?

I tried looking at ebay and found these: http://www.ebay.com/itm/10X-FIAT-PA...lips-9-10mm-/221893398436?hash=item33a9e08fa4 but I'm not sure if those are the correct ones.

Alternatively, can someone recommend some kick-ass powerful double sided adhesive foam tape that can hold the trim in place for sure?

Thanks.

Hi,
those clips are not the correct one.
I will check as i had bag of them somewhere.
If you prefer not to drill holes in your good door have a read about 3M VHB tape- not cheap but worth the monney.

Ah thanks alot! I had a read about the vhb tape. The stuff seems increadible so I promptly ordered some from ebay.

Make sure both surfaces are threated prior to adhesion, allow 12-24 h to cure. Ambient temperature does make massive differnce to cure time.

if you never want to get the plastic side panels off again... Tiger seal.. >_<

Yeah well I never really understood how an aquatic mammal would help me with my problem? https://www.google.se/search?q=tige...7T_oYOQyAIVg41yCh3YUgpG#imgrc=XikUA3aftSuInM:

Jokes aside I didn't realize the tiger seal was that powerful when we PMed about it.

Oh well I'll try the tape that I ordered and if that doesn't work (for some reason) I'll get some tiger seal.

tiger seal is just really good..
my centre prop shaft support mounts are pretty much completely made out of the stuff and my engine mounts have been filled with it too.
stops the engine moving around all over the place

Cool! Maybe I'll get some anyway, seems like it would be good to have around if the need arose for it.
