Did mine as well this last few days and very similar condition to sumshiftguy (mine’s a 2008). Was able to reuse all clips no problem. One thing; I was missing the foam blocks - what are they for and if necessary (assume so?) anybody know the part number.

Thanks.

The foam blocks appear to fill a void between the end of the sill and the end of the plastic sill cover and stop muck accumulating. Maybe only later ones had them fitted. Not sure  Gone to a good home: 2011 4.4 TDV8 Vogue SE Buckingham Blue with Ivory and clear glass = "Rory"

Thanks, sounds like maybe mine didn’t have them then; certainly the sill covers didn’t look like they had been off before.

Me and technology don't go together mate. I'll ask my daughter to post a picture in a bit.

Kev - any luck with a picture of your mod? I'm intrigued

Freelander 2 trims fitted on leading edge of rear wheel arch
Door shut

Not the best of photo's to be honest, but shows the door open then closed & using standard non Freelander 2 trims.
There's a minute gap between the new trim & the actual door trim, enough to cause stone chips?.......I dunno.
We'll 'suck it & see' what happens when we eventually get back on the road in a short while [I hope].

That small gap is why I swapped to FL2 trims but I’m an OCD c u next Tuesday  Gone to a good home: 2011 4.4 TDV8 Vogue SE Buckingham Blue with Ivory and clear glass = "Rory"

What are people using to "fill" the trims before fitting. I did mine last year and filled them with grease but when I had a sneaky look today the grease has gone. Is there a "solid" version of waxoyl type product that could be used. 2010 3.6TDV8 Stornoway Grey/ Black interior - gone
2005 4.4V8 (M62) Bonatti Grey/ Parchment interior - gone
1998 4.6HSE Blue/ Cream interior (can't remember exact colours) - gone
1977 White - gone (should have kept)

I used Bilthamber wax for my tailgate. Injected using the "straw" provided. They have a number of products. Better than grease IMHO.
