As with most disassembly tasks the TSRM provides a fairly good guide, but misses some details.

Side Mirror Attachment

How to wind down an electric window

Door Rubber and Internals

Before you can get the glass out, all the external window trim and the side mirror attachment need to be removed. To do this the window needs to be fully wound down, so you can access the screws to get the top door trim off. The internal guide rails for the window need to also be removed. The glass needs to be tilted to pull out the rear attachment first and then the front.

Drive Shaft and Exhaust

Removed the drive shaft and exhaust today. Both look in good condition. It seems like some of the exhaust has been replaced since the MZ12 arrived in Australia as the muffler is a Lukey.

Considering getting GReddy Trust header, for when I put everything back together.

Finished the removal of the wiring loom this evening. There must be about 10Kg of wiring loom in total. I wonder if there is some way to simplify this?
