Thanks Neil. I haven't done mine like that, I am wondering again if I should alter mine and do the same as the pic or leave as is, as the the car is not totally original . :cheers:

Well it has been a while since I updated what was going on , I have finished the car except the door rubbers,
which keeps the car off the road as there seems no prospect of getting the rubbers at the moment, I have took on another project for the back garden a Chook house 6ftx6ft and a good size run which has kept me out of trouble its all finished but blocking up the garage because of the lousy weather we are having,,any way back to the car, I have a problem ,I have the square rear window rubbers now and thought I would put them in and the frame work of the 1/4 vents and then just cover the vent up temporally,BUT I cant remember which chrome strip as there is a different cut out at each end on the back ones, and fits up which way ,hope I can get a pic of the car soon when the camera is fixed ,can any one show a pic of a driver side rear chrome strip the right way up .
:cheers: Eddie
