I'd like to true up the doors a bit on the 4 door phaeton. They shut fine and latch, but I have one left rear door that sticks out a bit on the hinge side (about an inch). I see there are large screws in the hinge on the door and the frame. I tried to loosen them to move them back of the hinge side back in toward the body but they only came out a small distance and I could not tap gently on the to move the hinge in. I'm sure there is some play in the set up.....just can't seem to budge the door.
