MK1Campaign 0 Posted March 2, 2008 Has anyone ever changed these? My drivers door has dropped a bit so im guessing its the bottom one. How difficult is it? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CorradoVR6-Turbo 0 Posted March 2, 2008 its a bitch to do and you are better off taking the door off,good clean blows with the hamer if you are lucky and it will come out. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
daves16v 1 Posted March 2, 2008 Loosen the top hinge bolt and shim it up. Your hinge will still have play but the door will close properly. I did this on mine and a few others on here. Takes about 5 mins. Dave Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I made some thin shims at work - pic attached. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
