Greetings all!
I'm at the stage of refitting the door cards, I've trial fitted them to make sure all the clips are positioned in about the right place.
Now I've refitted to wooden door cappings I can't get the door card up into place and get the clips in along the top of the card.
Anyone got any tricks or techniques for this?
Cheers, Sam

Are the top card clips omitted on the cars with wooden trim?

Looks like I've put door card clips where they weren't before... that might explain the difficulty.
WSM refers to 10 clips - so that would be sides and bottom.... NOT top edge.
DOH! Now I feel foolish!

I think you've answered your own question here! No need for me to do more than give you a quiet snicker!
But we've all had the odd D'OH moment! Kudos for 'fessing up!
