my wagon is finally about to get painted , and i need some help with where the black around the windows starts/ends. its been that ling since i puleld it apart i cant remember! anyways ive attatched some pics, if someone with a vlc wagon still with factory paint can edit them in some way and show me where the black ends and the colour starts it would be a great help! this one im not sure if the black goes all the way to the chrome strip at the end or ? Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

That big nut shaped thing on the back of the lock should unscrew. Then it'll fall out.

The bit with the arrows pointing to it is like a big nut. It will undo and the barrel will fall out of the door.

Wow PSI, looks like you've gone to a little bit of trouble with this thing... glad to see someone putting the effort in with a wagon. Just this weekend passed I went camping at Splendour and thought to myself, 'Now how the hell does anybody get by without a wagon?'
