Changing the door

Eljay55 · 9th March 2012, 01:05

I have just purchased a door for the saloon. Same paint code etc but i notice that the window is a winder and not electric as is on my saloon. Also the strip on the exterior is colour coded and not chrome. I do have these parts on the original door to change over but is it much of a job.
It's mainly the electric window that's worrying me.
Anyone shed any light on this for me.

Thanks, Graham

Perfect nano meet job Graham. We did BeeJay's rear doors at the last A+L one. about an hour maybe a little more. You will have to change the motor/winding mech over and the harness.

With the strip on the door you may need one clip. pull the trim away from the door at the end away from the door handle removing it from the first clip only ( hence you may need one clip as they can break) and then slide the trim off

Cheers Dave. Wonder if there is any helping hands at Thryburgh next Saturday

If not it sounds like a nice spring Evening kind of job.
