Hi anyone around the St. Helens area could fit me 8 rivnuts to my 2004 freelander
I've had a go using the methods online but give up... Guess the correct tool needed

I've been looking at getting a rivnut kit. Got some nice ones on ebay that come with an assortment of rivnuts.

Got one off ebay for about £20 to fit my side steps - you wouldnt believe how many times I have used it since! They are so useful to have around. Even the neighbour has borrowed it a few times.

Are you fitting side steps? Just curious.
