Adjust the dove tail female so that it becomes parallel with the lock
insertion direction.
Removal and InstallationNIS0001Y
CAUTION:

When removing and installing the door assembly, support the door with a jack and cloth to protect
the door and body.

When removing and installing door assembly, be sure to perform the fitting adjustment Refer to
BL-93, "
Fitting Adjustment" .

Operate with two workers, because of its heavy weight.

Check the hinge rotating part for poor lubrication. If necessary, apply “body grease”.

After installing, check operation.

Apply sealant and coat with the same body color paint to door hinge installation part and mount-
ing nuts.
REMOVAL
1. Pull the lever and remove the door harness connector while
removing tabs of door harness connector.
2. Remove the mounting bolts of the check link on the vehicle.

Corrosion ProtectionNIS0003X
DESCRIPTION
To provide improved corrosion prevention, the following anti-corrosive measures have been implemented in
NISSAN production plants. When repairing or replacing body panels, it is necessary to use the same anti-cor-
rosive measures.
Anti-corrosive precoated steel (Galvannealed steel)
To improve repairability and corrosion resistance, a new type of anti-
corrosive precoated steel sheet has been adopted replacing conven-
tional zinc-coated steel sheet.
Galvannealed steel is electroplated and heated to form Zinc-iron
alloy, which provides excellent and long term corrosion resistance
with cationic electrodeposition primer.
Nissan Genuine Service Parts are fabricated from galvannealed steel. Therefore, it is recommended that
GENUINE NISSAN PARTS or equivalent be used for panel replacement to maintain the anti-corrosive perfor-
mance built into the vehicle at the factory.
Phosphate coating treatment and cationic electrodeposition primer
A phosphate coating treatment and a cationic electrodeposition primer, which provide excellent corrosion pro-
tection, are employed on all body components.
CAUTION:
Confine paint removal during welding operations to an absolute
minimum.
Nissan Genuine Service Parts are also treated in the same manner. Therefore, it is recommended that GENU-
INE NISSAN PARTS or equivalent be used for panel replacement to maintain anti-corrosive performance built
into the vehicle at the factory.

Handling Precautions For Plastics (Coupe)NIS00044
HANDLING PRECAUTIONS FOR PLASTICS
1. When repairing and painting a portion of the body adjacent to plastic parts, consider their characteristics
(influence of heat and solvent) and remove them if necessary or take suitable measures to protect them.
2. Plastic parts should be repaired and painted using methods suiting the materials
, characteristics.
