anyone done this?
The replacement DS door I have had badly worn hinges- the lower pin may also be broken, I haven’t extracted it yet.
I drilled the top mushroom off the pins and punched out the pins from my old door ( thankfully hadn’t scrapped it yet).
Not sure I can trust the pins to stay put if only mushroomed at one end. One option would be to drill the lower loop on the door hinge & add a setscrew. That’s how Volvo doors are held in place, so I know that is a viable option. Might be kinda fiddly to access.
