So this weekend I've started removing the rear windscreen trim with a tool from Halfords !!!!
Quite easy really !! And I now have a Satin Black trim (see below)
Very pleased :)
Next will be the trim below the doors, easier as they just unscrew and have been off before...
Windscreen could be fun !!!

There is another 81 that has the same colour as mine should be. Are you still around mate.
If so are the outer door window trims black or chrome ????

Cheers

I wish whoever did the rear screen on my 81 had used the proper tool and been more careful, i think they must have used a screwdriver.

Hi maxuk15. I'm not sure if I'm the chap your refering to... but i also own a 2 tone autumn red / maroon 81. I can confirm the outer door window trims should be chrome as in my pic. Interesting to know another member has the same spec 81 as me 😉👌.
