Any problems with rain leaking into the door?

To remove you would just pull them out correct?

i tested the touch up paint today after shaking for 5min on a surface and yes the silversotne paint is blahhh way to dark!

i dont think i will do it. Then i thought about it alittle more and this job shuplkddnt really be done on silver cars. The keyholes look pretty hidden and suttle on silverstone and sebring. On white and yellow yes they do stand out. I think i will skip, the touch up is just not mathcing.

I went to Lowe's here, and found nothing. The Lowe's you're speaking of is a Home Improvement store, correct? They have carpet tack strips (piece of wood with little nails in it), but that's it. I'm wondering why they'd sell automotive parts at a home improvement store.

Traffic is hell in Lafayette, LA now, so getting anywhere here is a chore.
