Question List of fasteners needed to attach right front wheel skirt?

I bought a new used wheel skirt for the right front wheel of my 2000 XK8 Convertible, but It didn't come with any bolts and i don't have the old ones.

Where can I find a list of the bolts needed?

Specialised fixings:

JAGUAR XK8 & XKR - Wheelarch Liner Fixings.pdf

I haven't been able to find a alternative source to Jaguar Dealer.

Graham,
If I remember correctly I think you need 3 of the 'screw rivets'?
I know when I did the headlight dip swap I used M4 stainless nuts + bolts to get a better fixing in a couple of places but most need a blind rivet.

Steve,

Yes - it's three of the 'scrivets' required. You can see on the drawing where the other two fit at the lower edge on the liner.

Like the front bumper undertray, the plastic wheelarch fixings can be re-used if carefully removed but they are low cost and I prefer to use new fixings whenever these plastic trims are refitted.

In the US many of these fixings are stock items at Autozone or O'reilly, providing of course you can stomach using a part they claim is for a Ford or Chrysler.

I have never been able to find the Jaguar section in those stores.
