  12. Bit of a nightmare day but worked out ok in the end ... Fitting the sliding door looked like a clash with the window seam I replaced 6 months ago. Looks like I welded it a bit of low and was clashing with the top of the runner body !!!! ? Bit of scraping of paint, few hammer blows and ashamed to admit it trimmed a bit of the body of the runner wheel and it fitted fine !
