Pictures of your doors inside?

My doors inside near the vent area have a factory hole? In puting everything back together I can't think what it is for? How about some pictures. Thanks

Re: Pictures of your doors inside?

It's a "1972 only" thing (I think blazers may have gotten it a little earlier?) It's to hold the door together tighter. GM was starting to get complaints about doors cracking so in '72 their fix was to screw the door together under the vent window.

A screw and a ferule/sleeve. Just a screw usually will just pull through, mine did anyway.
