<VV> LM Rocker panels and door posts

[J R Read_HML]

Lift one side and take the wheels off.

Connect (duct tape?) a section (about 4 feet or so) of pvc to the garden 
hose.

Remove the rubber plugs in the front and rear inner fenders - which are in 
line with the rocker.

Turn on the water and work the pvc back and forth until you have cleaned all 
the junk out.

Do the other side of the car.

Park it in a hot sun for the rest of the day, maybe the next day too.  Maybe 
even drive the front wheels onto a couple of 2X6s - or "macho ramps" is you 
still have a set of those.

Replace the plugs.  Some folks leave them out thinking there is better air 
flow, but that also lets road grime enter.

Any time that you may have occasion to remove the fresh air vents in the 
passenger compartment, do a thorough clean out all the way to the bottom of 
the enclosed place behind the Monza emblem.  If it is a Corsa, just pretend 
for a while that it is a Monza, OK?
