Screws of Shame, part two point five : Side Poppers



TL;DR : adhesive tape is all it takes

As a follow-up of the new screws I did fit to the poppers that are on top of the boot cover, the ones on the sides needed replacing too.

The concern with those poppers is that they have an orientation, with a slight bulge on the bottom that keeps the full hood secured once popped in place. Not wanting to mess that up, I took some time and finally found a silly solution to keep it all well aligned.

Tape, it's just adhesive tape.

So one at a time, I did lock the poppers with tape and replaced the rusty screws with stainless steel ones. Two per side : one behind the door, and the front-most one under the boot cover.
