If I adjust those bolts so that it opens it kind of explodes open with a thud and I was worried something like a hinge would break. I want to find springs to put on top of these bolts or instead of them. |

OK mine works at time and not at others. These bolts were at maximum adjustment and I'm sure that's not how they are supposed to be as it just about closes. I will look into it when I have time

Do you just replace the screw in centre of the buffer?

Yes. The new parts come complete with mountings but all you do is unscrew the old buffers and screw the new ones in. No need to remove any trim

I can now confirm that T P S Stoke will serve non trade account customers.
The part number is correct. I also had to put the tow hook back in the correct place in the lid to add ballast to enable the mechanism to lock. Mine are wound right in tight to trim, they don't pass through the trim hole. Down side is the added noise on release and shut lines near inner and outer lights are a couple of mm out. Maybe Enlarging trim holes so the buffer would go tight back would help. I'll monitor the situation first. Thanks for the heads up on this chaps.
