Nah, straight doon the middle
Ah reckon me new door is a bit buckled! Ah've had the thing off, messed about with the hinges, messed about with the stricker, had a rat**** strap on the top hinge/ mirror bracket to the top seat belt mount, took a file tae the stricker holes so's tae move them forward tae make the door close properly and the fecker is still not right! It's tight at top and bottom but kicks out at the curve under the window.... Hinge end is perfect
So what your really saying is it fits just like all other land rover doors. Well done, job done

Ere Buster....your doors open.......
I changed the front two hinges not long ago so I'm hoping when the doors get refurbed they dont change shape too much....the back doors are another thing completely. They are off a satana so might not fit at all hehehehehehe

Tried lifting with rat**** strap/prybar under the door/ wedges etc. Have had the striker in umpteen different positions, door won't 'lock' into striker anywhere else than where it is and that's after filing the holes to give a bit more leeway!
It's more so the bottom that needs bendin' out.. but the top is tight anaw!
It wid dae yer heid in so it wid!!!!
