knight Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 A guy in the scrapyard showed me how to get them off without damaging the clips (especially that little white on at the end). Takes 5-10 minutes each strip.He took the external, vertical, black plastic finisher at the open edge of the front door which is held on by a couple of screws behind the inner rubber door seal and a few clips. With the finisher out of the way you can now see the little white clip which stops the weather strip from sliding out.Get a couple of small screw drivers to compress the sides of the white clip and carefully lift weather seal up so clip is clear of its location hole. Once out of the way you can then slide the weather strip out leaving the blue clips attached to the door which can then be easily taken off.The rears are similar but the white clip is at the hinge end of the door. Again remove the external black plastic vertical door finisher first.Job done.that should be a how too! 1"£££$££"!! 1"£££$££"!! 1"£££$££"!! 1"£££$££"!!

carfix Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Re. cutting holes in doors. The scrapyard owner did not mind. He evens lets angle grinders in and they are usually a big no no. I know that the ones's near me would not allow it.Guess he thought he had plenty of rover 45's in stock and most of the doors already had damage on them so would not be an issue.
