The following guide shows how to best replace the door of your car without needing to go to a specialised body shop and without spending too much money. The first step is to remove the door to be replaced.

Take off the plastic parts from the inside and remove the wing mirror, including the electrical connections, as well as the electric windows and central locking. At this point, unscrew the hinges that hold the door to the car, and then proceed in reverse for the installation of the new door.
