<p class="MsoNormal"> At some point, MG stopped using
screws and finishing washers, replacing them with plastic
push-fasteners. These were twisted into slots/openings on
the unfinished side of door panels, then pushed through the
plastic sheet and into holes in the door metal.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"> As the sound of panel removal was
usually punctuated by the ‘crack’ of these things snapping
off, many doors are now in service with no push-fasteners.
They were pretty much generic items; if that’s what held
your door panels on, you should be able to find them in bags
at any parts store. <o:p></o:p></p>

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>
