Inner panels

Inner panels

Imitation leather-lined masonite trim panels are fitted to all versions of the new 500' models. The panels are secured in the housing below the door window by means of four stiff clips located at the top and seven spring clips located at the bottom equally spaced around the panel border. The fasteners are located in holes in the door framework inner flange. The door framework has a plate which should be bent downwards onto the trim panel once it has been installed. This will ensure correct seating of the trim panel in the door housing.

When the door trim panel is being reassembled ensure that the tarred felt pad is cemented correctly on the door inner flange so that any water that may seep in through to the door interior from the window rubber weather strips may be kept away from the trim panel which would otherwise cause distortion and rapid deterioration.
