DOOR-SEAL-SIDE DOOR LOCK PILLAR UPPER (MUCKET) REPLACEMENT

#### VEHICLES AFFECTED: 1987 ALLANTE (V) ------------------ Some 1987 Allantes built prior to VIN 002397 may exhibit one of the following conditions:

- Excessive wear of the mucket (see figures 1 & 2).

- Mucket may stick to the door when it is opened and result in hard soft- top closing effort (see figure 3).

- Soft-top 1/4 glass interferes with mucket. This will restrict the outboard movement of the 1/4 glass assembly (see figure 4).

To repair this condition:

1. Remove hardtop and lay it on a protected surface.

2. Pull mucket off.

3. Install new mucket P/N 1645376 RH and 1645377 LH.

4. Reinstall hardtop.

General Motors bulletins are intended for use by professional technicians, not a "do-it-yourselfer". They are written to inform those technicians of conditions that may occur on some vehicles, or to provide information that could assist in the proper service of a vehicle. Properly trained technicians have the equipment, tools, safety instructions and know-how to do a job properly and safely. If a condition is described, do not assume that the bulletin applies to your vehicle, or that your vehicle will have that condition. See a General Motors dealer servicing your brand of General Motors vehicle for information on whether your vehicle may benefit from the information.
