Chrome trim reassembly: help needed

[mattie4859]

Has anybody got exploded diagrams of where all the chrome pieces around the windows locate? I can't find them on the W & N parts catalogue. I have four pieces (two pairs, handed) that we don't where they came from. If I can take and post some pictures I will.

Hi there,

those pieces must be for the top of the door and back wing? One looks like a hockey stick? They have a seal on the inside?

These are the pieces it sounds like but they would appear to be obvious so I am probably misunderstanding - pics would help.

Regards,

Rohan

These aluminum trim pieces, each attached with a strip of interior colored vinyl piping were riveted along lower front and rear door openings, imediately in front and rear of the interior vinyl door panel.

The top piece is for the front and bottom piece is for the rear.

This is the rear mounted aluminum trim piece with the vinyl piping.

"Borrowed" this pic from fellow forum member Stan. Pic below clearly shows the front trim assembly in front of the kick panel.

Hi,

I only have a few low resolution digital camera pics of the interior. Since my coupe is presently in storage, I won't be able to take more pics of the interior for the time being.

This interior was installed by the previous owner. It consists of 2 Koenig made front sport seats and the matching rear seats, end and center armrests.

Although the seats look good, the entire interior at some point will be converted back to leather, including the original front seats.

Hope this helps,
Bert

Thanks a lot my friend ,
speaking of interior , my is blue like yours but with the conventional seats you know , i am thinking about making it all black leather ( i just dont like the blue colour ) and i couldnt wait another decade looking for a CS with other coloured interior , i want to cover the panels the hand bars , with black leather combined with alcantara , also the carpets in black , do you think it will be looking good ?

 

[bert35csi]

Black is always a classy interior color. It will go with almost any exterior color. Your ideas on the door panel and armrests are good. Suggest an oem looking black with grey combo for the carpeting.

Red will be my next interior color.

Good luck on your project! keep us posted.

Hi Andi , the same idea i have for the panels , and the seats , just more leather with the small holes on the panels , and black alcantara in the middle of the seats , the front dash in the same leather cover all over , but i have to cover everithing which is blue , ashtrays , the back panels of the front seats , in Bulgaria this will cost me around 1000 EUR complete!
