I just installed a new door striker on the driver's side. Unfortunately, I installed it a fraction higher than the worn striker I replaced. When I shut the door, it fit beautifully tight, however, it now fits so tight that it doesn't seem to want to unlatch (ie, I can't open the damn door). I didn't torque on it to much for risk of damage and given that I was working outside in about 5 degree temp. Any suggestions? Pull the latch as far as possible and have someone give it a good bump? Take off the hinge pins (which I intend to do in any event to replace with new). As always, help & advice is appreciated and has always been correct. Sincerely, R. Rogers
