I've read through an excellent thread on the forum which shows what folks have done to repair their doors by accessing them via the heater core, behind the radio, or both. What I didn't see in the thread was whether there was a preferred position to place both doors before starting the repair? (LO/HIGH/somewhere in between), (Defrost/Center Vent/Footwell). I'm going to attempt to access both doors through the heater core...

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

I haven't attempted this, but I've been considering it and found this guy's video to be very thorough: You Tube
Yes, this is the video that I'm going to be following; I ordered the 3D Print Files for the door plugs and pivot cap from the video poster (very reasonable) and had the parts printed locally. Just a little unsure of how to orient the doors to make things as easy as possible.
