Abstract
In one aspect, a vehicle door is provided that includes a plastic inner reinforcement for closing an opening of a vehicle. The plastic inner reinforcement fits the opening of the vehicle to provide reinforcement for the vehicle door about the periphery of the vehicle door. The vehicle door includes an outer shell, an inner cover panel, a support, a hinge portion configured to connect to a corresponding hinge portion of the opening of the vehicle, and a door latch for engaging a door strike of the opening of the vehicle. The support connects the hinge portion and the door latch to inhibit movement of the door latch relative to the hinge portion.
