I had the passenger door adjusted by Dave Batty recently. The door was not sitting flush when closed with the rear wing and now blends seamlessly (good job done!). However, you now have to slam the bl**dy thing so hard that I'm sure the glass is gonna go at any second, I've just noticed it's also catching on the latch paintwork. Does anyone know how to adjust this back? Is it the catch on the door that needs shifting or the latch in the body..? I would ask Dave but ideally I need to fix it tonight. Many thanks KTG

I adjusted mine so that they closed with a flusher look by undoing the catch on the door.First undo with allen key then just nip up to allow for slight movement as door closes.Reopen and tighten.Im pretty sure the reverse will work just the same.The strike plate- which i also removed to strip back and polish- on the door aperture only seemed to hold the lock in situ without any adjustment possible.
