Ben,

I fixed the ones on my 4KQ by removing the old double stick tape(use razor
and isopropyl/rubbing alcohol) and replacing with new double stick mounting
tape.  Because the tape was not a sure grip, especially since the moulding
was warping,I followed up by holding it with stainless steel screws.  You
may not want to drill holes, but the stainless steel screws have been on
there for some years now and are still shiny - no rust.

Alternatively, there must be some adhesive that would work.  I'd be
interested to know if you find anything.  Also, it sounds like the mounting
of the moulding on the 100 is different than on the 4K, however, I'm sure
similar creative approaches will work.

Hi all,

	For some reason my door moldings (92 100CSq) are separating from
the door. It looks like some of the clips are broken and the adhesive
isn't sticking anymore.  Do you guys know of any good body shops in the MA
area?   What's involved in this repair?   From the family album it looks
like I would have to remove the inner panels to secure the clips from
behind. 

Thanks,

Ben Kwan
