so, some time ago, a ned ripped my arch off the passenger side front wing. managed to get a replacement, however, its always loose. when drivin at speed, it usually unclips and have, at one point, had the whole arch hanging off when drivin.

in the pic, the red part i have, as i got a new arch with it, but the green part i dont have. anyone got any idea where i can get it and what its called and even a part number?

thanks

Use a nut and bolt with 2 washers that's all mine is.

ive just realised, that the bit on the sill where it would screw into, isnt there :(

the pic below shows, there's like a pin popping out, as if something would house on it, for the arch bit to screw into. the pin is there, and the arch part is there, its the part that would house onto the pin that isnt there so i cant even use a bolt as there's nothing on the sill for the bolt to go through

Make a "L" shape bracket mate and rivet or tiger seal it on and use that to bolt to for a solid fixing.
