Phillips head screws so no doubt a later install

Been trying my hand at a bit of Rolf Harris minus the wobble board and his other jail-able offences

Front door car resto or rejuvenate or just embrace what I have
Turn out the maggi rich gravy mix container is a good fit for inside the door pockets
Had to source a few chrome strips plus off more rooted cards and a bit quick grip around the edges plus a bit more flattering of the cards from water damage
