    Body trim around door openings

    Does anyone have any picture of the body trim around door openings? The manual says use large 'C' trim. I don't have any so I wondered if FF changed things? All I have is the larger stuff that goes round trunk. Cheers

    Are you sure you're looking for the right thing? It is "C" trim. Should be in a roll that you cut to length. It's plastic, shaped like a "C" when looking at it from the end, and intended to fit across the joint between the chassis and the body. It's really nothing like the trunk bulb seal. Found this post on the other forum that shows it: http://www.ffcars.com/forums/1552398-post10.html

    Yep, the photo Paul linked is it. Unroll it and lay it in the warm sun for a while and note that the barbed edge goes to the inside of the cockpit.
