What is this for on my legacy

What's the reason for this guys the bar at the bottom of the door and the slot in the chassis ,is it some sort of stiffer to make the body more ridged ?

Is it not to stop the door opening in a heavy impact

As above side impact protection bar stops the door folding in on you from side impacts

How ya John.
First-is that the original colour on your car? It looks like a pearly, metallic orange colour in pics?
Anyways , it's sometimes referred to a a "nader pin"
afaik
It's connected to a reinforcement bar in the door.as the doors are frameless I guess they were weak in a side impact or rear impact.

The blitzen colour is beautiful in person, but it's real hard to capture on camera lol
90% of my pics look that same kinda metallic orange lol
