It was not easy, yet it was not too hard. Sorry for night pics, but Im still working on them. I still got to do the passengers side, and im dead tired. I cant find my center punch and i badly need it today. Thank god for holidays! I finally get some time to work on my ride.

Just an update, latches are back from the welders who filled in some half-moon crevices on the mounting plates. Im determined to keep the latches bolt on both sides(body and door). I could very easily be done with the project, if I weld the latches to the door side. But I rather do the extra work and make them removable. The latches bolt right up to the body side. I would say now that it is very easily possible to Lambo door the 6th gen celica, and actually any car out there.
Next stop is the machinist at work. I got to slot the mounting holes so I can have some adjustment. The plate is too thick to do it with a dremel. The problem is its hard to get the latches in a mill, since you can not take them apart. Main hinge is welded closed. The slot will allow the door to move in/out closer to the fender. the latches have 2 adjustments built in. One is how far the door will open before it goes up, and the other is moving the door up or down so it catches on the striker when you close it. So hopefully next weekend I can put both latches on so I can mark the holes, and off the machinist. I was able to get away with not extending the wiring harness. I cut the middle off the rubber wiring boot and added plastic loom. |
