Hi all, Long story short - my '84 Euro wagon finally got a respray. Yeah! All trim removed and replaced successfully EXCEPT the curved rear section of the roof drip rail on the D-pillar. I can get close but one end or the other pops off the car when I try to tap it home. The long straight drip rail run from the windshield back is no problem.
I'm planning to visit the bone yards to find some W123s to practice R&Ring this piece (sedans and wagons since the end section is similar) but am looking for hints or tips from anyone who has been here and done this. Is it best to start at the top next to the long section of rail or at the base of the rear side window? The curved piece seems to have an odd bend to create a friction fit but it's just not happening for me. So frustrating! Thanks, Dave '82 240D (3 pedal), '84 300TD (Euro), '85 300TD (Cali) _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
