Good Passenger Door

[vwdmc16]

Looking for a good straight passenger door. Bare or not. Need to replace the banged up one on 1168. If not too far from the Sacramento area, that would be best and I could pick up but I know shipping is likely. Let me know what you have.

Thanks

Have you tried Josh at DPI? Or one of the franchises? I'm assuming a savvy guy like you has done this already. Just thought I'd be the master of the obvious here. Also I believe there's at least 2 owners on here with parts cars.

I've got one with no damage. It's still got the fixed glass and door lock components. I'm asking $625 plus shipping...which would be the only issue.

Good, My only issue is how much would shipping be from FL to CA. If it ends up being cheaper yes I could get on from a vendor but If somebody in CA or even NV had one that would save a ton of shipping.


Im still interested if you could possibly get a rough shipping quote that would be so helpful.

12hrs of driving for a door? will cost nearly as much as shipping.

Exactly, not to mention it will be much more affordable buying it privately.

Clint should just give you money, sounds like you got this all figured out for him.

[vwdmc16]

He sure has!

Well lets see. To carry a door I would have to drive my truck which gets 15mpg. DMC CA is 417 miles away( x2) so at least 834 miles of driving at 15mpg = 55 gallons of fuel. Fuel is about $4.20/gal averaging the cheaper stuff in norcal and pricey stuff in socal. which is $234 just in fuel. But wait the the shop is only open on weekdays so I would have to take time off my day job, loosing even more money. But wait again, This isnt for my car its for a customer. I would have to get the door and I dont work for free. I charge $35/hr plus expenses for little jobs, however driving isnt that hard of work so I could cut him a break, $15 hr to be his delivery boy is really cutting it so add on the $15x(12+2hrs to load and what not) and bam this guy is paying another $210 for delivery.

So atleast $450 and a day wasted to get it myself or the $200ish Ive been quoted to has it shipped to my door? Hmm..
