Recognise this?

[Vic]

Having removed all of the Driver's door hardware and cleaned and greased every moving part, I scouted around for suitable film to recover the door under the card.

Whoever had worked on it previously, had removed it and not replaced it.

Hmmm, what could I use?

Recognise it?

It's what's left of the shower curtain. Well, who wants dolphins in the bathroom anyway?

Anybody else got a story of expedient household item liberation?

I really need to do that, went for a drive today in pissing rain and soooo much came in past the door cards. Maybe I shall be buying some plastic sheeting next week! What glue did you use?

[Vic]

And boy is it raining!!

I just used an off the shelf Glue and Sealant in a tube that goes in a gun.

Beautiful!

The next person to take the door card off will definitely be surprised !

Yeah my first thought was about how funny this will be if there's a new owner in about 20 years doing the same thing.

Good idea. My passenger side door currently has a DAV donations bag. I think I'll try to recycle my shower curtain this summer when I replace the window regulator on that door.

You should rust proof the inside bottom edge of the door cavity. Use paint, seam sealer or cavity wax. When 02 doors show paint bubbles on the outside it usually starts here.

I personally used rubber cement so that I could remove it again. My door plastic says;

[Vic]

Yes, thanks for that.

I applied rust kill on any affected area, then fishoil. Roxy is stored in a garage, and never driven in the rain if I can help it. And of course, living in central New South Wales, it's mostly dry as a bone here, despite the occasional downpour.

Btw vic, I was passing through yass back in january when I was moving from sydney to albury/wodonga. My father was approached at the petrol station by a guy that had a 1602, I think and asked about my 2002. How many 2002's do you have there in yass?
