Just curious: How difficult is it to install the drivers' side door? I've decided to keep the Celi for another year and my drivers door is rusted and the window internals rattle around so I'm thinking this might make a good summer project. Any thoughts?
Also, does anyone know where I could find steps to do so if it's not too hard? I have 0 experience working on cars but am always on the forum reading stuff and would like to do a few things if I can. |

The wires feed throug hthe door (by a plug I'm believe or atleast they did on another car I've replaced doors on) And it should sit flush as long and your hinges and everything were fine before.

When you take out the door panel, you will just need to unplug some wires, such as the wire for the power window/lock, wire for door light and another wire I believe, not sure. either 2-3 but it's pretty simple

Awesome. I think if I find a door for cheap enough, I might try it this summer. My other concern is that my passenger's side door isn't flush with the body. The car was in a fender bender before, so could this be permanent, or do they sometimes just warp over time? |
