Mk6 Si Ross Posted June 23, 2004 Share Posted June 23, 2004 I know there's such a tool as a pin punch which can be used to remove the door pins, dunno how neccessary it is though, if there's any ways around it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyrix Posted June 23, 2004 Share Posted June 23, 2004 The vaxhall tool is similar to the ford tool, what yo have is a threaded metal bar, that fits thru the door pin, bolt it p on the bottom and theres like a bit yo hit at the top to knock the pin out, i mean yo cold try drifting it but i dunno, putting it back ins a peice of Pee lol. Only done it on a Vauxhall cav bt its the same type of fitting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cargy Posted June 23, 2004 Share Posted June 23, 2004 The other way is to take an elderly passenger shopping, making sure they sit behind the driver. As soon as you stop near the shop they want, they will throw the door wide open without a thought as to other traffic, and this should result in instant door removal without the aid of any special tools Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clarky PJ Posted June 23, 2004 Share Posted June 23, 2004 No pins on escorts . just remove the bolt from hinges and lift, may need light persuasion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
