The bit I'm looking forward to is the refitting of the window winder assembly. That's always good for a bit of fun! lol!! That's a tidy motor as it is - it's going to be great once you've done! Regards, John Hi John, The left door's winder went in yesterday you will be happy to know. Went in easy as pie. Which tells me the other one is going to be a real pain. . . . Ari

RHS window windows and winder were installed last night, as was the windscreen washer bottle and the GB and TC lever covers. Putting in the side, front and back glass and picking up the dash on friday in PE.

just replaced mine....start with the middle in the front and rear get it nice and tight...work your way to the sides on the front and rear parts...then move to the sie of the niva again starting in the middle by the pllar behind the door and workinng out the craeses, moving to front and rear of each side lastly tackle the corners!
Make sure to pull the niva in the sunlight with the wires and rooflining in its brackets let them both heat up together in order for the material to achieve a stretch if needed and be nice and soft to work with,
Dont pull to tightly and be patient it took me about 2 hours...use a good quality contact adhesive...and make sue to close the can in ordder to stay compos mentos!

Hi Oldschool
