JJC Posted March 5, 2011 Report Share Posted March 5, 2011 Looking for help on how to fit the side quarter panel trims that go above the wheel arch. Roger William's book doesn't cover Surrey Top cars. You obviously have to fit the trim panels after the backlight but what then happens to the trim panel? Does it tuck up inside the backlight frame or screw on top of it? The kit I've bought from Moss won't tuck up inside because the trim panel is too tall, not enough room.

badshead Posted March 5, 2011 Report Share Posted March 5, 2011 If I'm understanding you correctly, the panel tucks under the lip below the backlight and clips to the door post in 3 or 4 places. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JJC Posted March 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2011 If I'm understanding you correctly, the panel tucks under the lip below the backlight and clips to the door post in 3 or 4 places. That's really what I'm asking - because the new trim panels I've bought look a bit tall to fit in under the backlight. What would really help would be a photo of an original, or known to be correct, car. JJC Quote Link to post Share on other sites
