A TR7 16V Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 Going to replace the driver's door striker plate asap. Quick question: if I take out the three CS screws all at once, are the nuts captive or does a plate fall down the inside of the b post?Any hips or tints would be appreciated.Graham Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheepy Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 Not sure about the herald as I'm a spit man (one of the experts will be along soon) But what you could do if you are worried, take out two screws so that it can rotate a little to expose one of the threaded holes, then re fit the screw to hold the captive plate in place, remove the last screw and loosely fit the other screws to hold it.Re fit reverse of this!

Nick Jones Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 There is a tapped plate and it is captive. It can move around but shouldn't fall out of reach.Nick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A TR7 16V Posted July 25, 2015 Author Share Posted July 25, 2015 Thanks, I should get to do that tomorow. Just wanted to know if it was captive or if I need to do it the way Sheepy said.Graham. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
