    My perentie door tops appear to be aluminium and are painted with heavy black paint inside.

    The lower frame however is steel, and showing some water ingress.

    I don't plan to be drowning mine, so letting water back is is less of a problem, but I can see how it may happen regardless.

    I need to do some thinking/3D printing/laser cutting and come up with something that works.

    also need to look up part number for door top bolts.

    The page from the LR Parts Catalogue is in the Perentie parts sticky http://www.aulro.com/afvb/coil-sprun...ml#post2441649

    The studs are MTC6223

    You won't find me on: faceplant; Scipe; Infragam; LumpedIn; ShapCnat or Twitting. I'm just not that interesting.

    Looking at the amount of unnecessary metal on that stud, it looks like it might be designed to be sacrificial?

    Compared to the damage a flying doortop can do to another vehicle, I feel it's worth it.

    You could try fixing my xtrail.
    parts for that are insanely expensive.

    A bumper (plastic) costs $1800
    Starter costs $1100
    Engine $2600
    Plastic body clips are $5 each and I needed 40.

    The perentie is a dream on the wallet by comparison.

    $2600 for an engine is pretty darn good!
    The fuel pump for a Perentie costs more than that!
    Agree with you about the other parts though; that's why modern cars can get written off with very minor damage (especially if you pop an airbag)

    Yeah I've been watching fuel pumps on the afm auctions.

    Ignore the misplaced photos. Can't seem to remove them
