Jack points on Mk1 LCR shot?

[Jay20VT]

So, I just come off the phone to the lovely peeps refurbishing my alloys, he told me that the jacking points are not looking great (not the covers), what do you think he meant?

Probably means he can’t get them back on.
Or he can get them on but not securely.
Have you got a screw underneath to keep them on?
I have a little self tapper underneath each one and carry a small stubby screwdriver in the spare wheel kit incase I need to get one off out on the road.

What colour wheels have you gone for, original or change?

 

[Jay20VT]

I think he is telling me the actual jack point themselves are bent out of shape but will see when I get there. Went for something they call sparkly silver, will post pics when I pic up tomorrow

Ah sorry I read your first post wrong.
No doubt the jacking points are bent/ crushed.
As long as they’re not rusted through should be okay.

Yep, I think that's what he meant but will get the full story tomorrow

use silicon spray were the clips are on the covers they latch easy then, i used garden wire to replace the rubber lan yard that crumbled so i don't lose them lol
