1994 Honda Accord 4 door. Replacing driver door I got from a 'you remove it' junk yard. I have the door mounted but can't get to the bolts to adjust. Door hangs low. When I took off the door at the junk yard, somebody had already removed the left front fender making it easy to get to the hinges. It looks like the best way to adjust the door is with the fender off. Probably how its done at the factory.
I tried removing the fender the other night before I mounted the door and took so many screws and bolts off without freeing the fender I thought I better rebolt and mount the door and hope I could get to the bolts good enough to adjust. I can't.
I have a shop manual but it doesn't show the fender mounting points. Anybody point me in a direction to get the fender off or loose enough I can get to the body hinge bolts?
Thanks, Wade in NW Florida
Should have kept going-it's just screws or bolts, but some are almost hidden-like front of fender and rear along door opening. Take off fender lining and look some more.
I sort of know what you mean-can be hard to get to the door hinges. have you tried like a universal joint in your ratchet and socket?

If there is a slot in the "fender hole", it unscrews with a big screwdriver If not, check for a slide clip under fender where it goes through.
(1) No need to know if engine block coolant drain plug was available. Once the water pump was removed, all engine block coolant was drained. (2) After removing the three engine mounting bracket bolts, I also removed the mount bracket from the the body and made enough room to replace the timing belt easier.
SOURCE: removing the fender was wondering if hood hing
you should remove the entire hood...it'll save you the hassle of replasing it if it gets bumped when it's only attached by 1 hinge and it wrinkles, creases or outright breaks

No. The nut is held on the back of the hole by one of two ways. Either it was welded before the door was completely built, most newr models are, or a keeper plate holds it in place to allow for some slight adjustments and keep the nut from turning.
Good luck, Big Daddy

Has anyway got an answer to the above question because I may have the same problem depending on whether or not I want to pay someone to fix my problem or do it myself adjust the door sounds like its a pain in the A** so is it better to just pay someone to fix it for me.
