I'm replacing my old doors with a nice used set I found this winter. The outside stop tabs on the old ones were both broken when I removed them in the fall. The replacements both have the tabs and I'm remembering it was a little tight getting my old doors out. Will I be able to get the new doors in with the grille in place? I can't check for myself as the car is stored for the winter.

Ok this fell off the first page without a reply. Anyone know?

The problem is the screws closest to the fender that hold the actuator bar on. If you can get to those it can be done but the clearance to get a wrench in there is so tight that I dont think its possible. Someone might know a trick that might help but for mine it was easier to take out the entire support.

Thanks, now hopefully someone will chime in with their trick to install the outside screws.
