I fitted a set from Moss. They need some adjustment (twisting) due to the steep angle of the door frame and the plastic cover that comes with them will not fit.

They clamp onto the back of the window frame and there is a plate that the screws go down on to protect the frame. Be careful not to drop those little plates down into the door! It took me several attempts to get them on and adjusted.

I also bought an identical set from E-bay for half the price. Except, for some reason, they just would not fit onto the frame securely and fell off (one making a mess of my paintwork). So you pays your money...
