Upper and lower side trim

[7T1BURB]

are now being installed on the BURB. Upper (narrow) trim has clips that snap into factory predrilled hole. The BOTTOM, however, is a different story. With this "wide" lower trim (as stated above) the front and rear of each lower trim piece has a spring clip and stud (these clips are readily available from various suppliers). In betweeen these clips there are plastic clips (about 1" wide) installed about every 7-8" depending upon the lenght of the trim piece. I had removed these pieces long ago and saved them for re-installing. I removed the old 32 year old stick-um and cleaned each one thoroughly with wax/greas remover and alcohol. I reinstalled these clips and then on each clip I then installed 3M Scotch-Mount (double coated acrylic foam tape / .045 in thick / Part Number is 051131 and this particular tape (.045) # is 06383). Lined up the front and rear studs on the trim piece first; test-fitted them on the door for alignment; removed the protective outside red tape from the scoth-mount and then installed the piece (working on the passenger door) and thats it. I suspect that if I tried to remove the trim piece now, the paint would come off with it...it really sticks!! BTW: the trim pieces do not sit precisely flat on the painted surface due to stick-um thickness and I can live with that...hope this helps in some way...Jack
