The door check straps on my RL saloon are different, the strap has a steel plate secured by two wood screws into the door frame, with a rolled edge. The plate measures 2 1/4" x 7/8" and is 16G thick. I am pretty certain that they are original fittings. They work very well having been in use on my car for 25 years with no problems. The heavy duty leather straps are not original!
The other end of the strap is fixed to a bracket on the door 'A' post located where the two shiny screw heads are above the bottom hinge.
