The same way as vauxhall intended. But imo use a bit of tigerseal just for peace of mind, just dont go too mad with it

sorry about the names but you made me laugh. yes ive seen a gsi with them off and them little nips that stick out of the sill that the plastic clips slide on to are special rivets. there is a vauxhall part number for them. TRUST ME mate
