Ha, 13mm would be the most unpractical car in the world. It sits 130mm from ground

yepp, mine sits 10mm lower and it can roll up over most things i've taken it across so far, worst being my brothers work driveway, and it cleared fine, so i don't have trouble with them, my brother did lose his front bar to a sight cliping it as he was backing up and pulled it off the car

So it's taken many moments pondering, but I have finally properly finished mounting the Fairmont doors.

Since you apparently can no longer buy the special rivets that you need to mount the door handles, I found a pack of 4cm bolts and nuts, put the bOlt in the door and then I ground a nut down to a very thin width and made a counter hole in the door mount, and then simply bolted it on.

So very happy this worked as I have heard of people welding nuts into the door and a few other crazy ways.. For such and easy mod it sure was a pain in the a**.
