Hi all. Took the top - all the windowy bit - off the n/s rear door of the Ami today coz the chrome trim @ the bottom of the glass was hanging off and the glass was held in with duct tape. It then looked like the image I hope I have attached. Sorry new to this... Anyway, now wot?! Has anyone tackled this before or is it a new door...? Has anyone got a door they might sell...?

 Ami doors = rust, surely?

Yes indeed; a common Citroen formula but, I belive, one of their best. The u - channel option did look the only way to save this. I measured it as 15 x 30mm, I think enough to do all 4 doors would be sensible - unless anyone else wants some? And in that nice galvanised sheet... Unless I find a good door...

I graciously accept your apology - any truths I speak which bring light into our drab world must count as success  I do like these little yellow fellows they give us to play with....  Sorry that one is green... |
