I’m just attempting to refit the side trim cover fir the sliding door but it’s proving a challenge, Is there a knack to get it to fit with the seal?? Thanks in advance Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Trim on side cover, fit to van. Have to put front end on first to tuck the tab under the ali fitting. It it a nightmare. If it's a new cover I hope you trial fitted and adjusted it as needed before painting.
I found on my bus that came without a seal so had developed some rust down the gap, that the seal didnt really work and in the end a bead of silicone did a much better job of stopping water going straight into the crevices. Basic silicone , not PU glue ,so it's easy to break loose when working on the track. There was a way of progressively putting the cover on, pushing it down a bit and then pushing the seal down that worked single handed I seem to remember.
Get a decent new seal that looks something like the original as some I ordered were useless .If I remember I put a load of washing up liquid on to make it slide easier. I may have a couple of seals if you get stuck .
Nice one Be thankful you have a microbus conversion The covers are even harder to put on a panel van conversion .
