Got 16v side trim June 27, 2021, 12:39:33 AM Hi I have been restoring my 1989 16valve and it has been to several garages during its restoration and I think some of my parts have been stolen or replaced. The side trims I believe should have a red stripe along the top . So I purchased some from a breaker and they appear to be stick on side trims instead the push on ones. Can anybody tell me if I have bought early model ones if so has any body got the correct ones for saleThanks in advance for any help
