I had door moulding fitted and I’m pleased with the look. I haven’t painted them I thought if the painted moulding got banged the paint might crack and peel off.
have u got more pics of these? cos they seemed installed on the actual lip that protrudes..? in the instructions it goes just under the ridge on the door so that it hits that instead of the door.

Thank you for your good observation, yes they are fitted incorrectly. What I will do when an park in a car park next to a car I will double check if the car next to me can ding my door. If yes they will have to fit new one's.

ok so i took the car in today to have them installed (black ones) and thank f*** i know them and i msg'd one of the mechanics asking him to send me pics of how they r doing... and glad i did cos guess what they had installed them in the wrong place! basically the guy confused the instructions with the D4 and installed them half way up the bloody door! needless to say that they got removed and a new set have been ordered but now i have to wait another week or so
Not good. I gather the garage is paying for the replacements?
Am sure that you can easily get some 3M tape and refit them, unless they have been cracked when taking them off as they are solid.
Unlike the genuine LR ones which will bend and kink if refitted.
Must have been a struggle too get them off as the tape is very sticky.
If its any consolation got the replacement windscreen fitted, only to notice that its the wrong one

sorry i didn't mean to be a dick just pointing it out but i wasn't too sure from your pic and it obviously got me a little confused as to where they should be installed. that said by looking at ur pics it seems like they will do the job anyways as the moulding protrudes over the ridge where other doors usually hit. knowing me though if the instructions say they should go under the ridge then that's where i would put them just cos that's where they are supposed to go lol

yeah they are getting the replacements, they don't usually stock them, they did manage to take them off don't know if they are going to re-use them with 3M tape or not (tbh they could cos i saw them and they are perfectly fine just the 3M tape obviously)

Hi Achichon
No thanks for pointing it out to me, I telephoned the dealer and sent photos plus the link to Landrover for the correct fitting instructions. Thinking about it am going to persue the matter next week with the dealer and get them to refit them or put new ones on. If I don't and my door gets dinged I will think it's because there not fitted correctly. Once again thank you, I will let you know what happens

@graemesmith1960 i thought about installing them myself as i'm sure it's not that difficult but it's just finding the time and place to do it properly and also if they get installed incorrectly or sideways etc i can always blame the dealer and them them do it right again.
