By "door skin" I meant the panels (cards) covering the inside of the two rear doors. I have to remove these to make some repairs. The black lock buttons on both doors have separated from the locking mechanism and one of the pull handles (to close the door when inside) has come out. I also plan to check for any rust inside the door near the problem. I was going to make this part of the overall restoration of the car but it is used as my daily driver and as such I have rear passengers on a regular basis so it is now a priority. Cheers, Kirk R.
