rekab69 Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 Hi All, Just got to the stage where I've sent off a new pair of bare doors for painting, when they are back I need to strip all the internal parts. window winders, locks, rubbers....etc.. off of the old ones.... Are there any parts that will not transfer over to the new ones, ie brake if any attempt to remove them...? Glued or stuck in place... Would like to order any parts required while their away.... Many thanks DAve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happyoldgit Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 I'd fit new waist rubbers and new damp barrier sheeting that is glued between the door proper and trim card. Stock up on spare door card fixings and inserts etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rekab69 Posted July 30, 2008 Author Share Posted July 30, 2008 Morning Ralph / Steve, Thanks for your replies, I have a pair of offside doors to strip.. Won't be starting till the weekend so plenty of time to order parts and stuff.. Any part numbers for the clips and waist rubbers mentioned...? As always a great help, many thanks DAve...

Many thanks DAve I needed new handles as the corroded metal fixings just spun inside the the plastic handle. You'll probably break some of the door card fixings and there's also a self adhesive sound deadening pad although how much difference this makes i'm not sure. On my 110 second row doors I also used a length of window channel and had to make up a couple of brackets which hold the small rectangular piece of glass next to the openable window. Its also handy to have a few spare countersunk self tapping screws I think there 3/8" i know that you can get the right ones from screwfix anyway. Be warned, you may spend a fair bit of time seaching for these screws which are hidden in the window channel! Good luck If you get stuck let us know i'm now on my 6th door!

Marco Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 I did replace all channels and rubber strips as the old ones were rotten. Same with the door handles, unable to get the screws out. Expect to source some more bits than you initially planned for. Buy all small plastic fittings new anyway as the will break. And spend time on soundproofing the new door prior to fiiting, my 200Tdi is now more silent than my Td5. Cheers Marco Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
