mates
maye have a VE ute booked in soon i quoted it today he was keen when he can work out a time to do it.

do door cards need to come , i normally pull them off if i can push the rubber strip down or can the top just be popped off enough ???

anything to look out for when doing them ?

had a bad expirience doing a windscreen in one when they first came out, plastic is brittle thats for sure.

Pop the top of the door trim on the VE. Two screws. One under a plastic clip at front of trim and the other behind plastic panel under the door release. Pull top up and back.

Door glass needs a little shrinking on bottom like all late model Commodores, otherwise no major dramas.

Not bad to do but they do have a small felt guard located down inside the door near the lock button that supports the glass as it goes down.
This can crease a newly installed piece of wet film big time when you go to drop the window.
