<DIV><FONT size=2>Also MGBs originally had those clips fitted and removed from
underneath. The plastic sockets are of course much easier but the holes
almost certainly need to be drilled out to take the thickness of the plastic as
well as the pins, my body man was horrified when I did that to
mine.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=2>To no avail though as the new grille (!) did not fit
correctly as the curvature was wrong, and I had to reuse four of the original

fitting.<BR></BLOCKQUOTE></BODY></HTML>
