Arch liner

Post

Back to the top
Advice/direction please. I am about to fit front arch liners to my 83 tin top. How are they attached to the arch lip and is a fitting kit available. Many thanks

Arch liners should have metal clips that go to take the screw, you can still get these from VW (well I got some a couple of years ago). They are like these but you need the proper ones as they are shorter and will line up with the hole in the liner https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/322352260488

Arches are drilled and then it's a screw and plastic washer.
Have a look at the online ETKA for part numbers and screw sizes

There are also some mount points deeper inside the liner.

Thanks for that, all makes sense now.
There are too many online users to list.
