>> The door panel/card attaches to the door via 4 - 1/2 holes at the top.  We bought SS DP57 (door panel clip 28 per car needed) and DP57S, plastic sleeve for door panel clip - 10-12 per car needed.  The DP57S would go into a 3/8" hole but my car holes are 1/2" with no sign of having been drilled out.    What do we put in holes to attach the 4 -   1/4 clips DP57 clips?  Options/suggestions?

>> The door pull handle mounts with 2 screws to recessed nut(captive?) in the door itself.  There must be some kind of spacer that goes 'behind' the panel otherwise if you we to tighten the screws  on the door pull handle it would crease the new panel as there is about a 1/2" air gap between the door panel and the door itself.
>> 
>> Appears from the door and the old door card, based on indentations, there was a 1/ 1/2" fiber or plastic diameter washer with, I would guess a 3/8" hole to receive each screw.  SS lists nothing in catalog for this and am wondering what was suppose to go behind the door card , glued on?", and the door itself so as to not crush the new door card when attaching the door handle?  Options/suggestions?
