Wanted plastic Cover between door card and door n.s.

Post by swiftcruiser »

I am trying to locate for the nearside door the large plastic cover that fits onto the door covering the winder mechanism between door and inner door panel. Looks like removed previously at time of some repair and not replaced!
Appreciate if someone has said panel going spare would purchase and pay postage as would like to put doors back correctly and try and restrict water ingress.
Thanks in anticipation of assistance
Robert

I had the same problem when I removed my passengers side door panel. It was already missing, I used some plastic and some duct tape around the edges just to seal it but anything along those lines should work. I don't know if you can get those panels from anywhere?

I know Lotusbits have some, but be careful, there are 2 or 3 different styles depending on which motors you have.

Bumped request up again, have been through the second hand parts store at Lotusbits to no avail, they may have one in their storage but the lads haven't needed to go there at present, so thought would put request back up on forum it is for "The large black plastic inner card that fits onto the inside of the door covering the winder motor on NS door.
Who knows worth another request
Regards
Robert

I'm sure I have at least one of these in my garage loft, can you show a photo of the one you have obtained, so I can check if the one I have is a pair to it? Jeff.
