[s-cars] Driver side mirror

[Dan Slagle]

Listeners:  I have been reading the recent posts regarding the
replacement of the lower door trim.  Is this problem characteristic on
all S-Cars?  Are there any tell-tale signs of the problem?  On what part
of the car does the rust occur?  Is it just the brackets for the trim
{My '98 A4 had the same problem, where the brackets rusted-out, but did
not affect the door itself}, or does the sheet metal of the door
rust-out?  Is there any preventative maintenance that can be performed?
My 95.5 S6 has 85k miles and does not show any signs of rusting.  The PO
spent a lot of time in Florida and Colorado as well as some winters here
in Northeast Ohio.  I would appreciate any BTDT.  Thanks,

Dan
95.5 S6
