Hi
are they this colour?
also are they new or 2nd hand?
Do you have the arch covers as well


Sean

Sean,
They are the colour in the photo.
They are 2nd hand but in good condition.
I dont have the wheel arch cards.
Will post some more photos asap.

Thanks for your interest
Simon

PS , on the back they have marks but of course they dont show
when fitted. Again I will photo this and post ASAP.
They are quite heavy so I recall posting will be about £15.
Where are you located, could arrange delivery / collection if you are
anywhere near Reading/ Henley/Maidenhead.

Don't forget to be sure the plastic film lining under the door card is undamaged and/or repaired or the new card will get damp and mouldy over time.

Is this a film on the door or on the card . Don’t quite understand as its a while since I took one off ?

It is a plastic sheet that goes between the door frame (and all the mechanicals of the door) and the door card. It is, as 'DaveMct' mentioned, to protect the door card from getting damp(and then, soggy). The plastic to make them can be purchased in rolls and then cut to the shape of the door with apertures as required for door and window handles. They can be heldonto the door frame by various means--double-sided tape, velcro or a light adhesive.

Many thanks and I understand this now, much like
many car doors that I have taken apart. I guess the moisture seeps down the window glass through the horizontal ‘felt’ seals?

Last week I had to do this job on the modern 500 that we own. It uses a sheet of thin polystyrene which is very similar to the cheap laminate-flooring underlay. It is fixed around the perimeter of the door-frame using the sort of adhesive you get from a glue-gun. It was very well sealed but could be carefully peeled back (to fit a new door-handle) and then sealed back on again using the original adhesive.

Wow... I didn't realize Murp had hat stuff.....
these Modern 500s never cease to amaze me....

Did I just say "modern"? I meant ultra-modern. You know, where they copied the original N and of course they ended up with something a bit weak and unreliable. [emoji3]
Things are always wearing out prematurely and it's noticeably underpowered.... unlike an F with a 650 engine.[emoji3]

You can often cut the plastic and then reseal with waterproof plastic tape. If it's really chewed, then cut some polythene sheet and double-sided tape it to the car door.

The door itself is pretty much open to the weather and damp etc as the window seals are not 100% waterproof. The plastic sheet provides a vapour barrier.
