I always thought to install them you had to remove the seals, screw the dtms back in place then put the seal back over it.. (could be wrong though).

well on these doors theyve just been glued on with something bloody strong.

i bought the doors off someone breaking their show cab that they couldnt get a good price for

and someone else had bought the mirrors but we never got them off. i could try harder but would

probably end up needing new glass  :rolleyes:
