I am in need of knowing how to reattach the side plastics that mount right behind the side windows on the brat (first gen) I dont even know what they are called. They are in great shape minus the mounting tabs in the back. Any ideas on what I can glue/epoxy on there so they will snap back in? Also, I have a set of back seats that are in fair shape for $50 if anyone is interested. Would even trade for a set of the old white spoke wheels, or an amp, or even a good tint job..... And one more thing, I have a set of peugot wheels (six lug) with hubs for a brat for sale, brand new tires...make me a reasonable offer....

Ok so im going to do a little rust removal and repainting on my GL wagon. The rust isnt so bad that I will need to take it to a body shop so I would like to do it myself and save a bundle. My plan so far is to remove all rust with rust removers and fine-grit sand paper, then to use Bondo to replace the lost metal, and then repaint. The last part seems to be the greatest challenge so far... I CANT FIND THE RIGHT *BLEEPING* PAINT!!! The only color info I have on my car is a tab under the hood that says "color number 243". So far, not a single online automotive paint store has what im looking for when I enter that number. Its the standard 84 wagon light blue, which i thought was pretty common on the wagons and would therefor be at least somewhat common on the paint market. Can someone please give me some wisdom on this?? Or at least the right info (like what the actual name of the paint is) so I can enter it in the websites and get the right paint.
