What is this part?..... And mainly how do I get it off, the pic should be of the rear part of the door jam .... It's right above the stiker. I think it helps align the door when u close it .... Or keeps it aligned when ur driving down the road

It's a door guide mounted inside the pillar with two 10mm headed bolts. You have to remove (or at least pull back) the carpet from the rear corner on the side you want to change. Later coupes did away with them
