Use a socket that fits over the splined head. A 3/4" 12 point socket should work. Loosen the bolt and move it to where you want. Then snug it and test the door closure fitment before locking it down.

Usually that hole is for the brake warning light. Comes on when your brake pressure is low. Operated by a switch on your brake distribution block.

Ditto, brake warning lamp. Lights when the ignition key is in start and also when a brake pressure imbalance between the front and rear lines causes the indicating pin in the distribution block to shift and make an electrical switch. Pretty common for them to get broken or lost.

So, does anyone have the part number for the c6 shifter bushings? I ordered the 7343, and they are too thick. Thanks. :fr:
