To fit

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2001 Saab 9-3. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Fit in reverse order.

Check the door handle clearance against the lock. Adjust if needed, by adjusting up/down the opening rod adjusting screw until it is up against the lock opening lever.

IMPORTANT: Make sure the water drainage plastic is tight against the inner panel of the door and that it is not damaged.
NOTE: It must be possible to feel the clearance in the door handle, the lock opening lever must not be actuated in the resting position.
