It walks through removing the old glass, latch, hinges and gas shock, then reinstalling the new door, seal tensioning, and final fit-check. Useful for owners facing the same repair.
Posted by an owner-operator on their own property, documenting a DIY fix rather than offering professional or dealer expertise.
A propane heater warms the rubber seal so the glass falls off more easily, then the glass is pulled out by hand while wearing gloves.
Start with the latch plate upside down, push the plunger down into the notch, then swing it back around into place.
The rubber seal has a steel hoop inside; squeezing it tightens the bite and stretching it loosens it, adjusted until it grabs snugly.
The transcript states it takes a strong arm, about 40 pounds of pressure, to shut the door against the shock.
