### Installation Procedure

Notice: Door hinge parts could cause damage to other door components if not replaced with the same part or equivalent. Do not use replacement parts of lesser quality or substitute design. Specified torque values must be used during assembly in order to ensure proper retention.

1. Snug the upper hinge bolts so that the door can be moved.
2. Snug the lower hinge bolts so that the door can be moved.
3. Attach the door to the car body.
4. Snug the upper hinge bolt and nut so that the door can be moved.

Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.
