(BTDT) > Chris may be right about that, and maybe I got lucky. I was easily able to lift the forward edge of this panel away from the door well enough to get one of those cheap right-angle screwdrivers in there and tighten the bolt. However, my panel may not be what you're calling the cheap white luann slider one (what does "luann" mean?). This one may have been re-covered -- it's covered with soft tan vinyl, and there is a white plastic channel along the top edge holding it in place. -- Mike "Rocket J Squirrel" Elliott 71 Type 2: the Wonderbus 84 Westfalia: Mellow Yellow ("The Electrical Banana") 74 Utility Trailer.
