Does anybody know what the trim fasteners are (part no., photo etc.} for a 2000 S-type boot trim ?...The plastic trim that fits along and around the lower boot latch, I finally sorted out why the boot open warning light was on because the trim was loose, taping it in place made it go away!!!

The bottom ones are presumably standard fir tree types but the upper ones must have an extended section to locate in the 4 rectangular slots in the trim.

Thanks in anticipation...

Hi Joe,

Unfortunately I don't have any fixings to look at! At some point all of the fasteners have been removed and it was (badly) fixed with stick on velcro strips...I see why, replacing the alloy spare wheel in the boot well puts a lot of weight on the trim panel and this has probably broken all of the retaining fasteners. It's the upper fasteners that I'm not sure about, the bottom ones are just normal fir tree types I think.

Thanks Joe,

 

I think your trim must be different to mine. There are no holes through the upper part of the trim on mine but instead, 4 rectangular pillars with slots on the underside with corresponding holes in the slam panel beneath. I guess that the fasteners fit into the panel than you slide the trim on to them and then locate the bottom of the trim with the fir tree type!

Thanks very much for looking though!

Nick
