Side door slider rail repairs

Post by Balaclava »

Can anyone tell me where I can get my slider door fixed at a reasonable cost? The rail has rusted and it comes off the rail when it is opened. Might need a new panel and rail, maybe not.
I'm in North London. What about that outfit in Notting Hill?

Wot, no replies? Surely someone must know a garage or an individual in the London area who can sort this problem.

Who did you phone, IHD? My van is a B reg. That's 85, I think. I'm sure it could be repaired with a bit of welding but I'm not much use at that sort of thing and anyway don't have the tools. Any ideas?
