Mk III Midget Body Parts Service List

Can someone scan and send me the page from the BMC Body Parts Service List for a '73 Midget that shows the brush and rubber seals for the top of the doors? I'm trying to install these, which I have done before but 20 years ago, and I'm having a four-star word of a time getting the clips on. I have several different styles of clips but I'm not sure which is required. All of them are giving me problems due to the lack of access for installation.

Thanks,

Done it several times and you definitely need a special tool. The inside fuzzy I attach all the clips to and then pull the whole strip into position from the bottom. Outside special tool made up from 1/8 by about 3/4 strap with a tight J hook bent on the end. Masking tape helps hold the clips.

Kurt.
