Driver's Window
I have eventually done it! It's been buggered since I bought it. Took nearly 2 hours as my sausages are too big and it's stupidly designed. Mr Haynes was his usual useless self.
From the finished picture, you might notice I have busted a pin off the interior light thing when reinstalling the trim. The cost these things are, it'll be like that for a while.

Rust Cure & Repainting ii
Here is what we did a few weeks ago. Bit of over spray but no more rust. I can't get it to polish out but no more rust. The paint that Halfords mixed does not match but no more rust.
The paint tin I had with the car suggested that the paint used on the respray was HFF. It is the right colour but HFF isn't a metallic paint.
I'll try a metallic green some time ...
