    I couldn’t find a thread directly on this point.

    Any tricks to get this metal bracket behind the door card upon reinstall? I’m assuming this little metal tab is supposed to be on the inside side of the door card, but it seems pretty challenging to get that to happen.

    Am I thinking about that correctly? Any tricks other than just repeatedly sliding cars in and hoping the metal tab gets under the lip of the card?

    Thanks,

    Anthony

    I start holding it at an angle, and getting the front top corner seated first. Then sort of rotate in + down, until the back corner is in place.

    I shall attempt this. It is challenging with the bolts coming out of door etc!

    Just reporting back. This worked well. I had to bend the tab a bit to get it to work but you certainly can tell the difference if you get it in the correct position.

    Based on my original leather door cards, this has spent some time in the incorrect position.
