Ugh, SVX has the most complex cladding

I spent the evening trying to put all the side trim pieces back on my SVX. They had been off the car when I got it, so I never had a chance to see how it all goes together. I can say that w/o having taken it apart myself, it's like the jigsaw puzzle from hell.

Just wanted to grumble at some people as to how much of a pain in the butt it all is to put back together.

Also, all of the weather stripping was all taken off, and in one big pile. So that has been fun, trying to figure out what piece goes where. But I seem to have gotten all but one figured out.

I've got one side skirt left to put back on, and I've got to get some clips to put the other side back on properly. It's screwed on at the moment.

But it's all worth it. The car's finally starting to look like a car again, not a partial-car.

Hopefully I'll at least have it tacked on until the clips come in, so that I can get it washed/waxed, and snap a few pictures for everyone.
