Re: Help with door adjustment after new door seal install

kirk, my problem is similar - the door clearly hits the rubber seal in the front at the bend in the A-pillar first (just above the left side a/c vent where the door bends). If I just lightly swing the door shut from full open - it won't even hit metal to metal on the latch, it's that bad. The seal looks perfectly installed, smooth lines, no excess anywhere. I'm thinking that fwd hinge adjustment might be the key here. Wishin I had enough time to sit down and really stare at it and scratch my head for a few hours, too busy runnin around like a chicken with my head cut off these days it seems! Ha. Yep, hard slam to even get it close, have stopped trying for now, don't want to break my glass. It's already floppin around in the channel (i.e. next project).
