Keep an eye out on ebay and the wreckers and get some lower calais moulds and side skirts and get those on to finish off the calais mock in time and itll be sweet.
Howd you go doing the extractors, snap studs?

16-10-12, 14:24 GMT+10#32 Got my hands on some clean VL Calais door trims (Series I). Also have the handles to suit on the way. I just have one thing on my mind. Ever since on my old trims i had speakers where the door pockets are i dont know where to put them on the door, i was thinking ether beside it or on top of it.. any suggestions?
