<div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false">BN1 and BN2 doors are about two inches shorter than BT7, so chances are you have the correct part. I'd be more inclined to MIG weld the holes in the door and re-drill to accommodate the trim piece. Maybe hold several layers of a very wet towel over the adjacent painted part of the door to keep the heat from the paint as much as possible.</div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false"><br></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false">Craig</div>

There is a drawback. The aluminum of the patches will not look the same after anodizing, or so I have been told. I guess the TIG weld filler is different from the almost pure aluminum of the molding. There may be work-arounds. Or maybe new moldings are available without holes from some supplier. <div><br></div><div>-Roland</div></div><br><div class="yiv8318557381gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="yiv8318557381gmail_attr">On Tue, Dec 29, 2020, 3:21 PM Harold Manifold <<a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" ymailto="mailto:manifold@telus.net" target="_blank" href="mailto:manifold@telus.net">manifold@telus.net</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="yiv8318557381gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;"><u></u>
