Replacing door stop

Post by Snow Boy »

1998 S70, the door stop on the front drivers door has failed and needs to be replaced, I already purchased the part. Can someone give me step by step directions, beginning with an intact door. Thanks.

Its pretty simple,

remove door panel.
Un screw the existing door check>
replace.
put door panel back on.

Im sure I can fish up photos from a 850 write up. if it would help.

It is a VERY simple thing..
Take off your door panel, on the 850s its only a few screws,
some along the bottom, the ones in the speaker area, and the ones behind the chosen above the handle.

Anyways, just get I believe it is a T30.
heres some photos of what your looking for.
