The upholstery is pulling loose from beneath the window trim on the left
rear door of my 1989 200 Turbo (FWD). The upholstery shop says it is a very
bad design and can't be repaired. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how
to secure/repair it? (Type of glue, tacks or what). Car is otherwise
immaculate. Thanks!
Larus

 

Anyone have any ideas on this?

This is interesting...my 88 A100 has the same problem on the same door.
When I was looking to buy, another 88 A100 had the same problem...on the
same door!

Sorry, but I've not got a solution yet.

(The door trim on the pre-revision A100s is much nicer IMO)

Sounds funny, same problem on same door (rear left) in my 89 100 2.2 The
rest of the doors are fine. Blue trim, but I don't think it makes any
difference.
