Replacing Your Car Door

Model: Seat Leon 1M - Years 1999-2005
Part: Car door

To replace your car door, it is not always necessary to go to a body shop; you can do it yourself. To proceed with removing the door to be changed, you need to take off the plastic parts covering it from both the inside and outside, remove the wing mirror, and disconnect all the electrical systems related to the window controls and central locking. Once all hinges are unscrewed, you can slide out the door. For fitting the new door, follow the entire procedure in reverse, ensuring each bolt is securely fastened.
