Re: [FWDLK] 1956 Chrysler New Yorker Interior Door Handle/Window Crank Removal



I was thinking the same thing as Roger, if it doesn't fit, return it. I'm sure it didn't come cheap.

First thought on the carpet, call Doug Pollock, the owner of SMS, and speak to him personally.  If it's not right you shouldn't have to deal with it.
 
Second first thought, is it possible that you have too much padding under the carpet on the transmission hump?  A little extra there will make a big difference on the fit.

Thanks John, Roger and Richard for your help!  From pictures and dimensions John sent to me, I made a tool out of a plastic putty knife to remove the door handles.  It was still challenging, but I was able to get them all removed so that I can have the fabric replaced on the door panels.

 

I got the fabric and carpet from SMS Auto Fabrics in Oregon.  The fabric was very expensive and some was soiled (the upholsterer was able to get the stains out) but the front carpet set didn?t fit well at all.  It is too short on the sides up against the kick panels (about ¾? on each side).  Does anyone have any suggestions for filling this gap?

 

Thanks again for all of your help!

 

Regards,

 

Eric
