Mike hi,
Photos attached of two side trims ie front wing and door.
Lengths, door 922mm wing 1435mm
Trim held onto body with set screws,( not sure if screws are held on to trim with a clip arrangement or permanently fixed) Re front trim the first screw is positioned 30mm from front edge, next is approx 550mm back which places it aft of the inner wheel arch through holes in U strengthening section. see photo
A further 3 fixings through strenthening holes and the final 30mm from door opening. Haven't details of door trim fixing.
Regards Stewart

Mike hi,
Have found a set of side trims in my spares collection. Can give a more detailed dimension if you require.
Cheers Stewart

sorry for delayed reply

I have now got a set so hopefully get them fitted shortly

my car is non standard with a Rover 6 cylinder engine and auto gearbox, which decided to cease functioning just as the engine tuning specialist got the engine running right
