THE INTERNATIONAL JAGUAR 'S'-TYPE REGISTER FORUM

Thanks Rob....so you do use a rivet. Huh, parts manual is wrong. The other chrome part clip is number 16 in the chart below using the plastic clips per the parts manual.

Yes same with that one Joe. All the clips are held on with normal rivets and then the chrome snaps on to the clip.

Rob,

Is this correct in the first photo?


You can see the clip in the channel of the chrome. It is real loose and falls out easily. How is this going to hold or do I have the wrong clips?

Joe. These clips are suitable for door & scuttle chrome strips.

Glyn,

Saw your previous post on the rivet that you used. Just ordered them from SNG. Thanks. My drivers door has holes and the both rear and passenger door has slots like yours. Does one of your front doors have holes instead of slots?

Joe ~ my car has slots on all doors other than the front of the front door that takes a T clip held on by a nut.



These rivet clips do a far better job than original clips.


They are part of mounting kit that I thought you had bought.

Yes, both front doors has the hole.

I have those clips.

Glyn,

Wait....I have the kit you ordered. I bought it months ago on your recommendation, but forgot. I was getting ready to mail it back for a refund since it was for the MK 2 and not the S-Type. I cancelled the other rivets that I just ordered. Let's hope they get the message since it is after hours.

Thanks, Glyn

Kit SBS1271FK covers the S Type as well. It even has the black plastic clips that hold on the 2 narrow chrome strips on either side of the rear numberplate.

As always Glyn and Rob....thanks.
