Hi Martin,

Mark is correct, the radiator/front cowl was the same for the TD/TF and TC MGB based cars. The grill really should be positivly fixed in. On our TF we fibre-glassed in four aluminium or SS bars with a tapped hole in each. Small nylon P clips were then used to hold the grill. I hate self tapping screws - especially in fibre glass. They have a tendency to crack the gel coat, work loose, damage the surrounding lay and have a viscously way to remind you they are there and have sharp tips but scratching and cutting you.
NG supplied a decent brass hinge and many owners reinforced this with a length of angle along inside the bonnet. I'll send some Pictures later.
Cheers,
Dave

If I remember right, the instructions with my TA kit were to place a few blobs of body filler inside the shell and to stick the grille mesh to them. After twenty-four years it is still stuck.

Thanks for all the replies. I think I will fibreglass some bolts into place.

As an aside, does anyone else have trouble working out some these codes you have to enter before posting your message?
