Guest Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 I am fitting an aluminium piece over my existing inside passenger side floor (the driver’s side was already done when I bought the car) A kind of second floor to hide the protruding diagonal chassis bar. I’m told I should use Sikaflex 221, as it is a good bonding/gluing adhesive. It looks like this stuff is only available online having enquired locally at some hardware and motor part/sport shops. Any thoughts? Ta, Rob. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6speedmanual Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 Adding weight and complexity. What advantage? What happens when for some reason you need to remove it? Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boris Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 "I’m told I should use Sikaflex 221, as it is a good bonding/gluing adhesive." And a bitch to remove. Seems a lot of hassle for no real return to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2GBR Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 If you are refering to an ally honeycomb section to bring the floor up level to the top of the diagional as per some race car have fitted 🤔 Then just pop rivit it in from underneath Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 Thanks for your thoughts guys. It's no real hassle to me and I have no plan of taking it off. I want the passenger floor level to match the already done drivers side and be able to use a floor mat, without a big bump across the middle or having to cut the mat in half. I just wanted peoples thoughts on the bond/glue/adhesive really! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Jonathan Kay Posted April 8, 2014 Member Share Posted April 8, 2014 If you want to find some locally try marine fitters and caravan fettlers. Jonathan Edited by - Jonathan Kay on 8 Apr 2014 23:56:32 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
