  • bolt sizes for sliding door

    Hi

    I have a 1991 T4 2.4 diesel, lhd, high-top, which was converted from new into a camper by German firm Carthago. The sliding door was badly dented while van was parked in a nearby street - so badly that every body shop I went to said it wasn't repairable. I managed to source a replacement second hand door, which was painted up and fitted. Problem is, it turns out, original door must have been from a high-spec T4, eg Caravelle, while replacement is just a panel van. There are problems getting window to seal properly, and generally to match up original door trim fittings with the door metalwork.

    However, this post is for a very specific query: - as you look at the front edge of the sliding door, there seem to be the holes for bolts to go through the door outer and hold the door inner in position. I don't have any bolts there at the moment. Is anyone able to tell me the size / spec of those bolts (and washers?)....? Or maybe a VW part number....?

    Thanks - Stewart
