Hi, can anyone inform me if the the top half of the front door frame on a mk2 can be separated from the rest of the door? I have a replacement door of a mk3 which has a black surround, my original has a chrome surround, or are these just clip on trims?

5 bolts hold the frame in. Then it can be slid out of the door.

The trims should just pop off, theres usually 4 clips that hold them on, at least there are on the mk3 doors dont know about the mk2 ones but id assume they are the same. Just takes a bit of force to unclip them but be careful not to damage or bend the trims as they are made out of very thin metal.
