Rear Lamp Guards

Just bought a set of rear lamp guards for the disco that have been removed off another car. They have come with all the brackets but no other fixings. Anyone know if the screw etc are available from a dealer or can you / have you sourced identical bits from elsewhere?. Any help would be appreciated.

If these were the ones on eBay, it seems they don't come with all the metal work. Download the instructions from the LR website or pm me and I'll email them over to you.
I would of thought it is unlikely you can source the bits. If it is just screws that you need, then this would be easy enough and the metal main metal bracket could be held in place with just self tapping screws.

Download the instructions. You have to drill two holes in the rear of the car anyway, behind the lamps. You would normally have to drill 7mm holes, but in your case just drill a small hole (about 3mm) and use self tapping screws. This would actually work much better than the original fixings.

Matt, thanks for the help and advice. Front and Rear guards now fitted. Took about 30 mins for the front and 45 minutes from the rear.
