Im sure its theres a pull off cap covering a screw below the door catch on the door. be careful not to drop the screw into the door.

should just pop off, open door slide rear one to the left, and the front one to the left, pressure maybe needed, mine came off fine

just slides

Sorry to resurrect this thread but,does this mean you can fit ph2 sidestrips(and bullets?) to a ph1.

Scrap that question,found the answer,if anyones wondering they are interchangeable but if you want to go back to original then the door needs respraying as they leave a line.

That's b****cks. They're a direct swap unless you have one of the first ph1's in whch case you need to widen the door holes slightly to make them fit. And they do NOT leave a line on your door.

Cheers Aluco,thats even better,i was just repeating what id read on another thread,how late does the ph1 have to be for them to not need widening?

 

[Luke20]

Also does anyone have pictures of a ph1 with ph2 strips on?

 

[Aluco]

I'm not sure how old, mine is an X reg and they fit fine.

Pic of my strips.
