Is there something missing at the bottom of the door post gap?

How is the rear tail gate trim removed?

How Can this badly oxidised black section be repaired?

Thanks, anyone know how to tackle the corrosion on the black strip on the last picture. Window is getting removed to sort the paintwork out, just not sure if this part is available from dealer ??

[Al Wyn]

iirc they are a standard 80 part so would have thought so...failing that im sure there will be good second hand ones out there at breakers

[ian4455]

Part number for this ??

What is this part called and anyone know part number ?

Just took a look at mine.
The corroded part looks like a cover thats riveted to the c pillar.
I've been on Etka and it gives a p/n 8A9 809 239 A for left c pillar but that looks like the whole pillar, and not the riveted strip

Hope someone can shed some more light on if this strip has a seperate p/n.

A80Q/RS2 B, C and D pillar trims

8A9 809 239 A is the PN structural "C" pillar structural component, not the external trim. The trim is something like these I found:

B pillar:



C pillar



C-pillar



D-pillar



D pillar



For replacements, I would start with a dealer.

Good news. *IF* I had looked a bit better, I would have highlighted the C pillar trim so you could have seen the PN. Likewise the small D-pillar trim, which can only be found under A80 (not Q) (nothing in A80Q or RS2 - go figure):

C-pillar



D-pillar
