the rivets don't come on a replacement panel ,you have to drill and rivet them yourself   Wink

Nope.
But the good news is that on here somewhere BC posted a full guide with measurements for getting the rivets in the right place.

All you need to do is find it!

I knew it was a while back, and with the search function being as *ahem* "good" as it is it may take a while to root out.

If you could scan it it would be ideal TBH Ian.
