Not areocatch - just regular joe pins

thanks guys, hmmmmm now im un decided if ill put them on the bottom or bellow the window .................

[Iain]

Under the window looks easier for mounting pins. Not sure how Paul did his though

[Mieran]

Probably by welding a bit of metal on the car and attaching the pin to that

[chambers1984]

if u put them under window mate u need to mod where the pin mounts a little. as with these catches they are a bit thick and dont pull the boot tight to the rubber they hit on the body.

[trossnova]

well i bit the bullet and did mine like this

I put aerocatchs in my bonnet & instantly regretted it :( there too big IMO...

[Paul]

No welding on tailgate had to modify the catch inside a bit tho.
