I need some advice on fitting this - it looks like the holes will be too close to the edge when I drill them. And do I drill straight through the leather gaiter?

I can't remember who's already fitted theirs which is why I haven't PM'd

Should be fine, mine was pretty easy to fix. but careful when doing the screws up, do them by hand rather than power screwdriver. One false slip and the buggers scratched.

yeah i done mine.

i used a power screwdriver and it was fine as long as u can drill straight

altho it is veryyyyy tricky. i suggest putting masking tape over the holes when u screw em in so if ya do slip by accident nothing gets scratched!!!

If ya need more help PM me
