  1. Thanks Roger. I’ve. It decided on the liners. Are they worthwhile?
  2. Hi All. I must be bad at searching as I cannot ever find what I’m looking for on here! I need to fit my new side mouldings so need to drill the holes in newly painted bodywork. Should have done it before paint… Does anyone have any tips? Not a job I’m looking forward to! What sealant do I use around the rear lights too pse? Please wait while image is uploading...
  3. Hi. What is PPF? I'm still pondering, but need to make my mind up soon!
  4. Thanks Roger. If you can make me a stainless one I’ll be the Guinea pig ha ha. Would be much better than anodised ally for sure. Cheers,
  5. Thanks for all your comments and advice folks. This is a tricky one.. I’d prefer to use the original one if possible so might have a go polishing it and see how it comes out. Guessing trying to add metal is out of the question, as in welding? I had thought about powder coating as an option but it won’t look original for sure. And yes it’s a drop head so needs to be right. Need to do some thinking..
  6. Hi All. Is there any way to rescue this, or should I buy new? Are the new ones ok? Mine as it is will let my build down and spoil the car.
  7. The frame to body seal has been in for a month so should be ready to trim?
  8. I need to trim this seal back, but how far back pse anyone? I asked before but forgot the answer!
  9. Screen in with new rubber seal and new chrome trim. Easy when you know how and have the correct parts from Moss! Cheers all, especially Stuart. Glad that’s done. Took an hour all said. Please wait while image is uploading...
  10. Thanks Stuart. That's exactly what I was thinking! Cheers and wish me luck as I chop up a £50 seal..... I'll be crying as I do it, being a Yorkshire man....
  11. Thanks Stuart. Much appreciated. So, fit the rubber to the glass, then fit the chrome trim to the seal on the glass before fitting the whole assembly to the car? I'd never have thought that. Doesn't the chrome trim make the seal swell, making it more difficult to fit the screen to the frame? I thought that was the idea, so fitting the trim after the seal is in the car, helps to lock the whole thing together, no? I will take your advice but never done it that way on other cars, hence my question. Every day is a school day. Thanks again.
