How to Replace Your Car Door

Model: Volkswagen Golf MK 5, Golf 5, Golf V - Years 2003-2008
Part: Car door

If your car door is damaged, it may need to be replaced. With a bit of patience, you can do this yourself. Remove the damaged door and take off the plastic parts from the inside. Next, unscrew the door hinges. Now, replace the lock assembly. Inside, you will find a metal cylinder that needs to be pushed out with a screwdriver. Then, press it into the new door. Carefully mount the new door and adjust it precisely to align well with the lock catch.
