Can you post a pic, i can't seem to recall plastic trim on the doors ?

Yep - that's the ones. Thank you.

10 of those clips arrived this morning, plus the moulding tape. So I should be in good shape to remove and re0install the panel with new clips and new tape...

This video from VolvoSweden on YouTube shows the whole process including the correct part numbers. Hope it helps. 😁

That's very good. Many thanks. Pretty much exactly what I was planning to do, although I have been saving it for when the weather warms up a bit. I have the clips and the tape, so it should be plain sailing.

Cheers!

Well, I lent the car to a friend of mine about 4 months ago and he is still pottering around in it. I am driving my Mercedes SL.

I do have the clips, adhesive tape, panel removal tools and a can of Owatrol Polytrol here ready to actually do the job, but there's no rush and I'd rather wait for it to be a bit warmer!
