coupe door fitment
okay so i've replaced the heater channel and rocker on the drivers side. All my final measurements are within 1/16th" side to side. Getting ready to fit the door. Any tips?

Re: coupe door fitment
no tips -- just wishing you good luck LOL
It is always a good idea to keep the spacers that came in the door together top and bottom separate, so that you have a place to start, but if you didn't (I didn't ooops), you just bolt it up without any in there and check out which direction it needs to go
The front of the door is in the movement of the hinges -- -- bottom hinge spacers move the rear of the door up -- top spacers down -- add to both to move the door back -- --
I start with the up and down and then do the front/rear adjustment -- -- once you start, I never loosen both hinges at the same time
