Grand Moff Joseph Posted October 4, 2018 Report Share Posted October 4, 2018 (edited) Suppose I wanted to replace a door (rear passenger) on a 1st gen Lumina sedan. Anyone done this before? How much effort needs to go into it? (I recall that swapping the interior panel to the panel from my old door isn't hard; what I don't know is how to hang the door itself) Edited October 4, 2018 by Grand Moff Joseph Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Imp558 Posted October 4, 2018 Report Share Posted October 4, 2018 It's easy, I did 3 of the 4 doors the first time I totaled my Regal. Pull the door panel Unplug all the stuffs in the door and feed the door harness out into the jamb and tuck it next to the seat. Take the two bolts out of the thing that keeps the door from flailing wildly open. Suspend the door with a crane or have a helper balance it on a jack with a block of wood and unbolt the hinges to remove it. Hang the new door and close it GENTLY, you will almost certainly need to loosen the hinges a smidgen and do a few palm smacks and such to get it lined up just right. You may need to adjust the jamb switch for the dome light. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pontiac6ksteawd Posted October 5, 2018 Report Share Posted October 5, 2018 And with your Lumina, with no power options, it will be even easier. Take the door panel off, and swap the doors. Thats about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
