Hi All,
I was thinking that it might be a good idea,
to lay a stretch of masking tape
along side the door panels
( when removing them )
so that the putty knives
don't scratch the paint??
best,
JC...
ps, I know, there are special tools for this :o)

Hmmm, my  westy is an 84 w/ color matched little clips that are a PITA to
remove in 1  piece, not scratch the panel, etc. Do later Westy's come w/ the
hidden  fasteners that can be easily popped off, or am I just an idiot like
my wife  says?
All wives say this, & if it war true,
Then, I couldn't ride a bike,
In the pitch darkness,
while doin tekeeela chooters !!!! :o)
What?.....Oh yeah, I cant :o)
