Removing all the old broken plastic and metal rawl-plug-type-things that provide threads for screws in land rover bodywork.

Where is a good source of new ones? What are they actually called as I've forgotten and "rawl-plug-type-things" doesn't seach on google.

Also, what's a good source of all the proper screws / bolts / etc preferably in stainless and has anyone made a kit yet consisting of every screw / bolt / nut / rivnut you'll need for a landy? I'm lazy and that would be ideal.

Thanks in advance
Mary G.R.

woolies, not woolworths , is a good source of trim parts and plastic fixings. as fer a complete kit. ARE YOU SERIOUS? with so many different spec landies you'd need to have abart a trillion brazilion kits to cover them all.

try the likes of demon tweeks or toolfix for a 'tub' of bolts. they int specific to landies but they do have a goodly selection in thur tubs

thanks for that Slob - I did a search, found woolies and a brilliant bolt / stainless fixing company Stagonset - Online Stainless Steel Fasteners came up as well.

Brazillions of combinations. Each one slightly wrong too I'll bet.

See all you had to do was write "Screws" then I'd have written "Washers" then you could have typed "and" then I'd have typed "Bolts" then it would have had better comedy weffect don't you see. But you insisted on doing it all yerself, and leaving me out snot fair.
