https://www.mitchell.com/mitch/products/product.asp?pf_id=34i would have thought it would be a fairly average time between 20-25hrs this would include a one way blend into the door.
If you were blending into bootlid/decklid and rear bumper there would be additional time for this as well.
also not sure if the quarter glass is bonded on this model, there would be an opinion time entered here as well.
most estimating software assumes you are re-finishing the vehicle to close factory spec.

i dont get it, why do u need a diagram for that? is the diagram for replacing it? because in that case just take your time and eventually ull discover each spot weld that holds it in place. vehicle construction is quite standard with a few exceptions so after a couple of jobs youll have the techniques memorized for removing and installing parts that diagrams will become comical for you. but if your looking to repair it, from the looks of the photo thats basic body work, you can use the other side as a guide to duplicate contours and lines.

[img]http://i50.tinypic.com/2qs7zmc.jpg[/img][/quote]That one needs a little additional time on the bench, needs a little pull to close that gap on the quarter to decklid. And their is probably a little localized damage to the inner quarter and rear light area.
the bonded glass removal is only gonna be worth about 1.5hrs.
all in all if you pressed all the right buttons and squeezed the estimate for every dime you could maybe get around 30hrs. In the real world that would total a vehicle of that age in the UK.
[b]p.s. sorry i should read the post’s more carefully :wak it would appear you want a diagram for replacement procedure and not the time factor involved.[/b] :blush: :blush:
