sliding door cover removal
Posted: 27 Jul 2014, 17:58
I want to remove the panel which covers up the sliding door mechanism; the bit under the rear window...
So far I've removed the screws holding it in place (ended up drilling the heads off the screws), and spent a bit of time trying to encourage it to come off my hitting it with a mallet from the bottom. It's not showing any sign of coming away...
Any top tips for removing this panel? I really want to remove it to I can make sure there isn't a load of rust underneath which needs sorting... I'm on a rust seeking mission if you know what mean!
