MK 1 front door rubber trim

[Mothman]

Anyone got a piece of rubber front door trim for a MK 1? Needs to be for the front offside. Thats all thats lacking for Mollie at the moment.

Trust all front doors are the same. So yes, I have rubber trim piece. I'm near Gatwick so maybe you are not so far away.

Hi bud,
as long as its from a MK 1 as MK 2s are not the same, i will be very interested.

I can confirm that MK2 trims are different - MK1 trims have a concave surface while MK2's have a step top and bottom with a flat central area (from memory). I think Kitch stripped them off the doors he gave me, but I'll check when I get home tonight.

Just had a thought - I wonder what the minimum order quantity would be to get a roll of rubber the correct cross section produced?

Off the top of my head it has to be 4 or 5m per car, so if there's enough people needing a particular pattern it may be worth checking out costs etc. I know I'm missing some bits for Timex (what're the chances of finding MK1 Estate rear wing strips?), and although Fred's trims are all present some are damaged.

No idea on mark 1 and 2 door difference in relation to BXs in general. Do know that phase 1 and 2 door trims on 16v can be different. What are the dimensions of the piece you want, overall length, width, depth, etc? Does it have top and bottom edges "cut back"?

I will get back to you on that as i will need to ask Rob Moss as he has the motor.
There is a diffence in MK 1s and 2s, the MK 1 being thinner and of a slightly different shape.
