Door mouldings pre facelift to colour coded ???
« on: 14 November 2007, 16:32:43 »
Evening all, my pre facelift door mouldings are coming off on the back doors and catching on the front so ive bought a set of face lift colour coded mouldings. ive taken one of the rear door mouldings off and also had to take the metal backing plate off aswell as it was bent and rusty. However does anyone know how best to fit the colour coded ones as they seem to have completely different fittings.... TIA  :y

as discussed ona thread yesterday the pre and post facelift mouldings are a different width - facelift being wider.

So can see it being a bigger issue sticking pre onto facelift...however the reverse may be more do able

Hi Angie, yeah they were colour coded but unfortunately a different colour to my car although quite easy to respray, i got them off my brother who works in a breakers yard.
