The doors hinge off a vertical bracket which bolts through the chassis side panels just behind each end of the dashboard. The inner surface of the side panel is probably trimmed with carpet so you may need to remove this to access the nuts. Once you loosen the two bolts (just enough to be able to move the bracket) you can move the bracket up and down or forward and back. If you know where you want the bracket to end up you may be able to mark where you want it to be where it attaches from the outside of the car but in any event I would mark round the brackets existing position so you can get back exactly to this if you need to.
