I need to re fix a rear grab handle on a pennine pathfinder, the top screws seem to go into a hard fixing piont (possibly wood behind the grp) but the bottom screws only seem to fix into the grp?

Is this correct or has something slipped

There is a solid block of wood behind the ABS moulding which should be long enough to accomodate both fixing screws. Try poking a thin piece of  wire through the lower fixing hole to see if the wood block can be located.

I would suggest using a 2" screw to refix the grab handle but try putting it in on an upward slant. If this does not solve the problem I'm afraid the whole rear moulding will have to be removed to extend the wooden block.

Best of luck !!

thanks for replies, fixed it back and it seems tight now,
