Open note to all members
I have been struggling on and off for several weeks with trying to get my passenger door to close. Without success. Posted here on several occasions for advise. You all have been helpful but no success. Oh, I was using repo latches. FINALLY, I decided to install the original latches (as a several folks suggested.

After taking out the repos and REINSTALLING THE ORIGINALS THE DOOR CLOSED FINE!!! Absolutely AMAZING!!!

Lesson learned: Never use repos! Nothing beats the originals!

Yes for original latches. Many times, just reinstalling them makes a big difference.
