Yes, of course they have. Bit time consuming, but look good, I think. Had to trim a bit out of the middle to fit as the disco arches are narrower than Defenders.
I would add a photo of mine but not a clue how to post pictures.
Look on the Gwyn Lewis web site as his Disco is fitted with defender arches and he was the one who gave me the idea.

I cut castles a bit like this _l^l_l^l_l^l_ all the way round then bent them over an riveted the inner lip of the arch to them.

If you're gonna fit them all round get a set of 4 Defender rear arches as the front ones have a massive inner lip.
