A lot of breakers will try to sell the entire door instead of them breaking it down (time = money) so getting one with the bits on would be best (IMO) as there's a lot of fiddly bits inside some doors.

Used doors are usually cheap, like the same price as a "new" one that needs paint, prep, and all the bits changing over.

Facetime with you? I mean, if you can simply take all my interior pieces, trim, handle, mirror, glass and move them to this shell then I've only found videos of people popping off the mirror for the heated mirror mod and the trim inside...

Sucks about PDR, I thought they could perform miracles.
Mini doors aren't even aligned properly from the factory, so it's fine. Christina's drivers door is off and it bothers me but we looked around the lot and most of them were like that too

lol. I've taken apart a few doors in my day, other bits too.

I only end up with a couple screws extra, but hey, could be worse right.
