Golf door removal.

[tek199]

I have a door which I would like to replace (too many knuckle dents to fix up). I do have a spare door but I am a little stuck as to the best way to remove / replace it.

Where do I get the star keys that would undo the door bolts with.
Or is there a pin I can push out to release the door ? (similar to Astra, Commodore etc doors)

thanks in advance.

should help. keep in mind, youll want to pull the electrics out first so you dont destroy your door loom, so youll need to probably take the door card off first, which youll do anyway to keep your interior same same, im guessing.

Ah that's not what you think it is Leigh, That's the locking pins on top of the door.
