<font size="-1"><font face="Arial">Hello folks,<br>
<br>
This sounds like a dumb question as I have had MGBs for
ages......but what is the correct way of fixing the door panels
to the door? Currently mine are held on by the window winder,
door latch thingy, the recently installed loud speaker and
nothing at the bottom. It should be the little screws and caps
like other interior panels yes? If you can I would appreciate
photos. <br>
<br>
By the bye, I have just spent an hour getting the panel back on
because I could not get the speaker holding screws in line with
the metal strap with 'holder clips' they put in to hold the
speaker. Total fiddle and blind manouvers!!!!!! But now the
speaker fasteners are in and they hold the panel. Whew!!!<br>
<br>
Cheers<br>
