Could well be one of the mysterious lost threads. It might be worth dropping Andy a PM as he's sold his Elan and he may disappear forever.

But what happens when you add I.T. - threads disappear.

How was it done? I read the post before it disappeared – Andy roughly replaced the missing piece with cataloy paste and later filed and sand papered it to shape. He then coated it with a grey spray paint he had identified at Halfords as being a very convincing colour match. The name of the colour might come to me later....

The reason they are breaking is the screw fixing is too far away from the door panel. When replaced they need a packer at the back, the thickness needs to be identified by trial and error to suit each door.

Sorry for the delay - I don't visit quite so often these days.

It was pretty straight forward to do - just requires patience.
