Noticed the drivers door handle surround (outside) is loose and wobbly.

I guess i'll have to take the door trim off to fix it? I hate door trims at the best of times. Is it easy or difficult on ours. Any info will be kept strictly confidential.

Cheers, 66yo :rant::O

Easy, well made.

door trims are easy as pie after the first time.

They're even easier the second time around as most of your clips have been broken so the door trim should come off easily... he he he.

I removed mine once a few months back and took photos of the whole process so I could post it up in the DIY section...but I havent yet as I only learnt how to post a picture a few weeks back.

so I''m not much help to you.

thats soo true, who the hell decided plastic clips were a good idea when after a few years they go brittle as shit and just smash when u try and remove them :)

obviously doors trims were decided over a working lunch with a few warm sakes

Did you know that wind up windows for the BMC Mini were designed in Australia, in the canteen, at lunch time. : :):laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::nuke::nuke:

I fixed it proply this time. It was easier the second time around.

There are TWO nuts to tighten. One you can get to with a ring spanner, the other with a long extension socket. Both 10mm. Also you need a good torch to see inside. :D:kiss:

    • Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?
    • Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
