Default door cards

My 75 has the deluxe door cards. The drivers side card is kind of busted at the top screw. The rest looks in good condition.

Can they be repaired or is it more hassle than its worth?
If I get a chance I'll get a picture up.

Depends on the damage. Driver's side, of course, gets more use than the passenger's side. Trim screws can get loose; holes can get enlarged.

FWIW: it's an interior door trim panel on this side of the pond.

Hi YB,
Is the guy in your avatar holding a spanner or an open-end wrench?
