B post repair - pics wanted

Post by garyd »

Hi,
can anyone either point me to pics or post some up, please?

I need clear, detailed, shots of the nearside B-post at the front of the sliding door to show the shape of the skin and the seal recess as it blends into the sill. From, say 250mm above the inside floor level down to the bottom of the sill.

The repair panel doesn't include this area and it needs to be right to mate with the door lip as it closes.

I have been searching through metalmick8y's various threads without finding exactly what I need.

thanks
Garyd

Thanks MM.
That was one of the threads I had gone through and had forwarded to the bodyshop. I was looking for the left side B-post in case this right side one wasn't clear enough for him.

However, your pics proved good enough and the job is now done.

Thanks again,
Garyd
