Overiders

[ddffrost]

Hi,

Just bought some overiders (thanks Carole).

Do they fit to supporting bolts so have a set postion or can you put them any distance appart?

Pictures please.

You'll probably get the bolts and spacers with them and they fit wherever you want them to fit (obviously on the bumper). Have a look through the galleries, they can look odd if too close or too far apart for that matter...

yer i though as much to close together and they look goofy

i like how they look on the back more than the front

To some extent its easier on the back as the engine lid largely dictates the positioning ...

If you don't have these where can they be purchased from please.

Hi paul
The bolts can be bought from b&q but i found the dome on the top of the coach bolts where to big and made the rubbers stand off and look crap so what i did was take them to work and machine the heads down they fit great now .I suppose you could grind them down.The good thing about replacing them is the old bolts are a UNC thread finding nuts is a pain and the new ones are metric so nuts are easy to get.You can get rubber overider trim that goes between the overider and bumper its about 40p a meter and you need about 2.5 meters.Just done mine and they look spot on
Cheers

Dont forget get to buy stainless dood if you need any new bolts. Loads off places on line that sell what you need. Worth it and pay off in the end when they are still nice and new 5years down the track :mrgreen:

Sorry to jump onto this but they should fit to the outer blot hole of the bumper irons
