    For as much work & bloody cut hands that job is buying new parts makes a lot of sense.

    Call Steven at eMINIparts.com. That is where you will get your best price. Tell him you are an M/A member.

    It's not really that hard if your double jointed, have magnetic fingers and don't mind bleeding from all the sharp edges in the inner door.

    After you get over all that it's simple. :lol::Thumbsup:

    Have fun.:ihih:
