Installation recommendations

Generally and typically for this type of body part, the exact replacement procedure may vary depending on the specific car design and access to the attachment points. Before the assembly itself, it is advisable to compare the used part with the dismantled piece, especially the shape, orientation, attachment and design of the arm or stop.

1) Before assembly

• Check if the part is mechanically bent, cracked or excessively worn.
• Compare the serial number and appearance with the old part.
• Check the condition of the fixing points on the doors and the bodywork.
• Check for paint damage around the mounting and signs of corrosion.

2) Necessary tools and materials

• A common set of hand tools
• Suitable heads or keys according to the type of fastener
• Plastic pry bar to remove paneling if access is needed through the filler
• Cleaning agent and cloth
• Auxiliary support or second person to secure the door during work

3) Step-by-step assembly procedure

1. Park the vehicle on a level and safe place and secure it against movement.
2. Open the left rear door to a stable position and secure it against spontaneous movement.
3. If necessary for access, remove the cover or inner paneling around the attachment of the part.
4. Check carefully how the original stop or hinge is attached and note the orientation of the part.
5. Unfasten the fasteners of the old part and carefully dismantle it so as not to damage the surrounding sheet metal or paintwork.
6. Clean the mounting surfaces and check that they are not deformed or excessively worn.
7. Place the new part in place and verify that it fits in shape, position and orientation.
8. Mount the part first loosely, without fully tightening it, to fine-tune its fit.
9. Check the movement of the door when opening and closing slowly and see if the part works smoothly.
10. After verifying the correct fixing position, tighten the fasteners evenly.
11. If trim or covers have been removed, put them back in place.
12. Perform a final function check with several door opening and closing cycles.
• 4) Post-assembly checks and function verification
  • Doors should open and close smoothly without excessive play.
  • The stop should properly limit the movement of the door without making unwanted noises.
  • Check that the door fits correctly after assembly.
  • Verify that the part does not come into contact with the surrounding parts of the body when the door moves.

  5) The most common assembly mistakes + how to avoid them

  • Swapping part side – always make sure it’s the left rear door.
  • Incorrect orientation during assembly – note the position of the original part before disassembly.
  • Mounting on a damaged mount – check the condition of the mounting points before mounting.
  • Too fast tightening without seating – first fit the part loosely and verify the position by moving the door.
  • Paint damage in the surrounding area – protect the edges of the doors and the body when handling.

  Reasons why the part is damaged

  • Frequent door use and normal mechanical wear
  • Excessive strain when suddenly opening or closing the door
  • The effects of corrosion, moisture and dirt
  • Deformation after a minor impact or door overload
  • Wearing of attachment points, which subsequently puts a load on the stop or hinge itself
