i don't know what you call it but when you open the door. there is an arm that goes inside the door and attaches to the frame. hopes someone knows what i mean. well the bolt that attaches it to the frame is gone and the arm is just sitting there. does anyone know where i can get the right size bolt or what the size is so i know what to ask for?

BTW: YAY! i'm not a lurker anymore!

U can go to a junkyard and pick 1 up for next to nothing. take your tools b/c U might have to take it out yourself.

oh snap..

i think it's the door stop thing that keeps your door from swinging out too far. what u do is look at the passenger side rear door, take that bolt out and bring it into a hardware shop and u should find it.. junk yard is wayyyy too much work, you might not even find a maxima or what ever. just rip another bolt out.. hahah just don't lose it or else you're gonna b in more trouble..
