Safety Considerations

• Always wear safety gloves and eye protection while working with vehicle hardware to avoid injuries.
• Make sure the vehicle is parked on a flat, stable surface and the engine is off before beginning any installation work.
• Use proper tools to avoid stripping the fastener head or over-torquing.
• Be cautious of sharp edges inside the door frame when accessing or adjusting the striker pin.
• After installation, verify that the door latches and unlatches smoothly and that it does not open while driving.

Installation Instructions

• Open the vehicle door fully and locate the existing door latch striker pin on the door frame or B-pillar.
• Use the appropriate tool to unscrew the old striker pin from the mounting hole.
• Align the new striker pin in the same position as the original. Insert and thread it into the mounting point.
• Tighten the striker pin securely, ensuring it is snug but not over-tightened to avoid damaging threads or misaligning the latch.
• Close the door slowly to test alignment—adjust the striker slightly if needed to ensure smooth engagement with the latch.

Additional Installation Tips:

• Mark the original position of the striker pin before removal to help with realignment.
• Apply a small amount of anti-seize compound on the threads to ease future removal.
• After adjustment, check that the door closes flush with the body and doesn’t rattle or pop open.

When to Replace?

• If the door doesn’t stay closed properly or pops open unexpectedly while driving.
• When you notice visible wear, rust, or deformation on the striker pin’s surface.
• If the door makes rattling, grinding, or clunking noises while driving or closing.
• When the latch fails to align properly despite adjusting the door or latch mechanism.
