I need to remove the passenger door to fit a new 2nd hand one, just received the thing today, I knew it needed a new window, but turns out the doors fooked. looks like some1 has tried to break in and bent the dam thing in to an un repairable state.

I know the 2 pins need to be removed but how easy/hard is this process?

I've already got a new door to go on, although not the right colour but gona get the car painted once its ready.

Apparently there's some kind of removal tool

I've heard this but cant seam to find it, just dowsed the hinges in WD40, I'll do this for a few days and go at it with a drifter & big hammer

Apparently they are a complete bar steward to do good luck let us know how you do it I've got one to do

You can do it without the official tool but either way you absolutely need another person to hold the door when you come to remove the second pin as if the door is not perfectly straight that pin will not budge at all!

Never thought of that. Cheers, I'll get my old man down to help

If you have some timber block it up maybe whilst dad holds it steady

I need to do this soon, so be good to know how you get on!

Did I remember correctly that the MK3 pins aren't available anymore, but the MK4/5 ones are the same? I gather new pins are essential?!

I'm not sure about the pins, I thought I could just use the same ones??

would be good to know though

I think they get so battered you may need new ones. Also they are a little exposed to the elements so tend to be rusty etc
