Default C4 door adjustment help

How do you adjust the door on a C4? I had to replace a door, and the rear of the door on the bottom is kicked out too much enough so to keep the interior light from turning off. Thanks.

Dan,

I could stop by and give you a hand getting a better fit on the door maybe this weekend if that will work, much easier with 2 people instead of one juggling the door and trying to get the gaps/adjustments just right. The door switches are tricky and sometimes stick so thats another issue to deal with.
Still need to swap out the lower CA with you so could kill 2 birds with one stone....
