Not flush at all.

It’s not hooked at the top properly. It’s not going to go flush unless you remove it and get it to sit tight at the top. That area by the lock needs to be tight to the metal of the door. There’s 2 grooves in the weatherstrip and it’s hooked in the wrong one.

You beat me to it.

The other thing I have observed is the plastic retaining pins that are sold aftermarket -at least the ones I have tried- are inferior to OEM. And if you buy the genuine GM pins, the price is nut$.

I agree.

I drilled some holes in the pushbar to mount additional emergency equipment.

There was a member here--from Texas too, who had one mounted on his rear bumper. You Texans love your cold ones lol.

But Wisconsin holds the top drinking state rank.

I would have done a bumper, except they’re wonder plastic.

It was on an nbs.

I just did that and it still doesn’t sit flush. I think the weatherstrip might be bad cause it’s bowing out a bit.

On another note.

I replaced both the driver side position sensor and the seat belt. Airbag light still on. Tech 2 is still reading the same code.

Blah

Love it!

I have a generic mounted on the bulkhead on my boat, and my home depot toolbox came with one.
I tried telling the check out counter girl "this was the big selling feature *pointing at the bottle opener*
She was not amused with me.
Mount one of those gun mount magnets from amazon below it, and then it will catch the bottle caps.

Maybe the weatherstrip isn’t installed right. IIRC it can be installed backwards. The panel should fit like this.

I've always had to push in on the door panel before I lower it down to hook the top of the door. By "push", I mean putting some body weight into it. Gripping the top and trying to roll the curved top of the door panel open helps, too.

Take the door panel off, then fix the weatherstrip on the panel then re-install, these panels are super easy, the 15+ are a pita.

The NBS are the super easy ones. They don’t even use clips, just hooks and 2 screws. Pull the screws, lift it straight up. They have been getting harder to remove with every new generation.

Just R&R’d my driver door panel to replace a soon to fail exterior handle.

Also checked my fuel alcohol content. Currently 7%

Glad it's on the outside and not the inside
