Hanging doors
« on: 13 May 2005, 23:12 »

Ok, replacing a door on my mk2 3 door and i cannot get it to hang right.

It ALWAYS ends up too low?  :angry:

Anyone got any tips?

Chars!

yeah loosen off the striker bolt in the doorframe and move it in the relevant direction then tighten it up. i.e. if your door sticks out a bit and is to low move it up and in a bit

Its probably the hing pin is worn, more of a problem with the 3 door as the door is bigger & heavier than the 5 door.  Cheap to buy from VW but a right pain in the arse to replace  :grin:
