Clicking doors...

Post by PowerPie5000 »

Does anyone know what those pin things are called in the door that help hold it open? The one on the drivers side is clicking loudly and i can see it jumping when it clicks... Any ideas where i can find a replacement and how to remove/fit them?

Cheers

Check strap pins get them from vauxhall £1 each iirc

Just hammer in and out
If it doesn't fit,
force it,
If it breaks,
It needed replacing anyway :thumbs:

I can see myself damaging something :roll: ... Do they come out easy and pop back in easy? I have a feeling the hole might be slightly bigger on the drivers door as the check strap pin has lots of movement (and a bit of rust).

They come out easy as there normally fubar, use a pair of pliers and hit the pliers instead of swinging a hammer at your door lol
