Post by: Dan282 on 14 November 2013, 21:43:36

Will the wood inserts come away from the door panel themselves?

Cheers

Yup :y

Door card off then 10mm drill bit to dead head the relevant plastic rivets, then refit using 6mm self tappers with washers :y

Have a search through Gen Car Chat, posted about refurbishing door cards October 2012 :y

Guessing it would look better if you put the self tappers on the inside of the door card when refitting though.  :-X

Albatross did a fine job a few years ago on a carbon fibre effect on F/L, it's only Interior mod I've strongly considered :)
