The door striker bushings are stupid since stores sell each new striker bolt and bushing together for like 5 bucks
And how would you separate the bolt from the washer?

I was more focused in on the door pins and weather stripping? Is it worth it for that?

Oh in that case go for it! It's pretty cheap anyways. Those striker bushings are still stupid though lol

I had bought the door pins before my 89 was stolen. I still have them too haha. They look to be good quality but i was told you have to cut the old door pins off with a cut off wheel or grind/drill the head of the pin and smack it out.

Sorry about your cars brother. Note taken. I will probably drill it out like you said. I was reading the reviews and one review said it took him 2 hours to do just the bottom one. So, drilling sounds way better. Lol
Thank you,
Charles

I just bought a door striker bushing at my local auto parts store and replaced it. Closes a little better leaks less. I just think I need new pins and weather stripping. Then, hopefully it will seal!!!! Fingers Crossed! Lol

The easiest way to put in the pin kit imho. It to use a chizzel & hammer to knock the head of the pop rivet. Then just knock out the pin. Takes about 1 hour or so to do a door.

I've ordered the door seals and door pins for my 88 coupe. they worked out great. Kinda of a pain to do it with fenders on, but like war said, save yourself the headache and take the fenders off for easy access.
On my 90 coupe I'm going to install them before I put the doors back on.

I would, but it took me forever to try and get the fender to line up properly. So, im going to "try" and do it with them on. Depending on how big the check is i might order the weatherstripping tonight. ![[Big Grin]](biggrin.gif)
