The green Omega I was sat in today, while removing its driver's door window, had, what was left of its trim, its trim painted black. It looked as if it could have been original.  :-/
I quite like my plastic wood.  ;)   :y

How is the best way to remove the wood trim from doors? (prefacelift elite) Do I have to remove all of the door panel? If so is there any wiring or electrics to look out for?

Been struggling with the father in law to remove a welded towbar and the facia to put MV6 one in, only to look at TB's guide on climate bulb renewal and have found out about the locking bar  ::) ;D

Sand Paper, lots of it.




Eh?? What be that for then ?  :-/

Keep rubbing the wood with it, untill you get to the plastic  :y




 ;D ;D ;D ;D Did think of doing a Clarkson hammer job  ;)

Look here http://www.omegaowners.com/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1217691577

The pic gives an idea.. but not the best. I will take some tommorow if you like. Looks so much better then wood.. in my opinion.
