I purchased weatherstripping identical to the old stuff on my 88 scamp. now the .....little entry door won't shut. Is there a way (easy way) to adjust the door closing thing?

am headed for Champoeg this PM and really should drive with the door shut.

frustrated over the whole thing of being a newbie

I shimmed the lock on the inside of the door with 1/4" aluminum spacers available at any hdware store. You need a bit longer screws as well. You could shim with washers as well if you don't need 1/4"
