  6. :confused: is yours double rail , mines just single with a fixing flange on top n i pop rivet to bus thru that flange ,mine comes from front round bend n overlaps on straight all in the same plane as it were .
     
  7. They don't do large lengths anymore and when I fitted, there wasn't enough room. I had fitted the cab rails first and then realised the door rail would need to be higher so that's why it's like that.
     
  8. no i mean yours looks like a double runner two runners not one , i just put one ontop the other see my pics on page before see what i mean ?
     
  9. the other over lap you want behind the mirror at the front edit. or sorry you start each side of the mirror with your length
     
  10. Ahh I see, no I didn't do that I just butted them up near the mirror but that would've been better I suppose.
     
  11. Thanks guys, it's looking like bend it and attach it above the slider rail. A mate of mine once had an early with gliss rails and his were definitely attached to the curved bit of the slider rail but I have no clue how you could attach it with going through the slider track. He didn't do a company did so I can't even ask him :)
     
  12. pop rivet chris
     
  13. your behind the slider rail the roller runs in the slot so no prob
     
  14. My rail is quite narrow barn, and I can't fit my rivet gun in to pop em off :)
     
  15. had the same issue, so what you do is grind/saw/file the removeable tip of the pop rivetter to fit in.....they're only tiny pop rivets anyway.....
