door hinge shims

Hello List,
I put a new door on my DMC last month and I am not able to open it
because it hits the fiberglass t section(the roof under the t panel) The T-
panel has been off my car because the door would bend the edge right off of
it. I adjusted the 4 door mounting bolts to their full length and that is
not even coming close to helping me.
I need to add a verticle shim that goes in between the back of the hinge
and the fiberglass piece. the height of the door looks good, just needs to
be pulled outward a littel. I see that my drivers side door allready has a
shim and it works perfect. My passenger side does not have a shim behind the
hinge mount. I just got my torsion bar back on and it looks like it is
coming off again. has anyone done this shim opperation before? I have read
the manual but it is not super clear. Do I just release the torsion bar and
losen the mounting bolts and tap a shim into place? and where can I get
these? dmc joe, do you have them available?
Thanks list
David
