Searched the forums but can't seem to find an answer. The passenger side door is closing slightly too far in - I would like to push the latch out by a couple of mm. On further investigation there doesn't appear to be any adjustment - the 5 allen bolts holding the fixing plate and latch in place on the B post seem to have no adjustment slots that would allow lateral movement. I haven't explored whether the latch pin on the door has any adjustment.

Anyone know?

Cheers

On the Sag you just rotate the door mounted pin anticlockwise to unscrew it then you have lots of movement. Just mark it first so you have a datum.

Thanks - will give that a go. Do you have to slacked the allen bolts either side of the the pin to rotate it?

Cheers
