Model: Saab 9 3 MK 1 - Years 1998-2003
Part: Bodywork
Operation: Replacement vinyl door pillar trim

In order to apply a new coating to the door pillars, first remove the glass scraper gasket and clean the underlying surface to prevent impurities from ending up under the new adhesives; also extract the gasket of the descent of the glass that interferes with the edges of the upright. Then peel off the old coating and carefully clean the surface of glue residues (it is suggested to use anti-silicone or thinner). After cleaning, fix the upper part of the new band with paper tape after having oriented it correctly; remove the adhesive protection film and glue it to the upright using a special spatula that will allow the vinyl to adhere perfectly to the upright avoiding the formation of air bubbles and / or wrinkles. Then fold the edges inside and remove the external protective film. Finally reposition the gaskets.
