Show me your stainless door threshers!
Spotted these when looking on the YRM website for SS bolts. Like the idea but can’t imagine what they look like. If you’ve got them, would you mind posting a pic?

Thanks
Col

I dread posting photos on here as someone is going to tell me I've fitted something wrongly!

I fitted the rear one first as the original was a bit corroded and looked horrible. Only downside is that the replacement is slightly narrower so some of the marks on the rubber show.
2nd row was fitted to protect the new paintwork - I'd had it resprayed as the paint had rubbed and started to bubble.
Front row was just to complete the set.
Mot sure what they'd look like without the chequer plate - might be an odd join.

i bought a set of these (for the front doors) recently and went to fit and they seemed too long and they would interfere with the seal...

Any ideas? I'm on IG: https://www.instagram.com/osloblue42/

Cheers for that. Does the front one go over the foam seal onto the chequerplate, or can you still see the foam?

You can't see the foam - the strip slots between the chequer plate and the bodywork.

I seem to recall that when I first presented the front strip, I thought it was too long to fit. You just need to slide the front into position first, then drop down the back. It is cut away where the seal goes (though maybe there's variation between makes).
