<VV> WATER LEAKING ONTO FRONT FLOOR

[Robert Jennings]

I am sorry that you took that as shouting, I am a working engineer and we
are required to use upper case on all our drawings.  Typically my caps lock
is on for that reason and I frequently do not notice that I am communicating
with them on.

Yes, I did read the instructions. That's how I do it. No need to shout. ggg

Steve, I have used sheets of plastic to replace rotten paper when I've 
had door panels off. Cut them to fit like the original. Tuck the plastic 
into the slots, otherwise water will drain onto the floor. Also seal the 
edges with some type of caulk (latex, strip, butyl tape, etc.). Tape 
works good in the places shown on the diagrams, just use something 
waterproof.
