door fixing screw.

[blackbeltuk]

Hi.
My car which is a 65 S type is in the body shop having a bare metal respray. The door hinges
screws are not in the best condition. So I'm trying to find replacement fixing. also I want to replace the strike plate and lock catch screws as well. Does anyone know where I might find
anywhere I can get these.
Regards Ricky

Hi Ricky

The following part numbers have been taken from the parts manual for my 420 Sovereign so they should be the same parts for your S type.

Dovetail plate screw - BD16940/2 - 12 off per car (superseded by BD15534/3)
Striker plate screw - BD21590/7 - 12 off per car
Hinge to door screw - 1490 - 12 off per car
Hinge to A post screw - 6784 - 4 off per car
Hinge to A post screw - 6785 - 8 off per car

I am sure all the main Jag specialist will have them. I have checked the David Manners site and they list them all.

If you are hoping to get them from alternative hardware suppliers then I don't know the specifications for them. Presumably, they are chrome plated so not as easy to come by as standard finish items.

Hope this helps you in some way.
