Hi folks,   I have noticed that someone considered this one of his most 
frustratinmg jobs, this is what I read in http://triumphspitfire.com/

> For the window winders I've found that a welding rod (3/32" - 1/8") works 
> well to push the old pin out. During reassembly use the same rod, score it 
> with a hacksaw about a 1/2" from one end. after pushing the rod into the 
> crank hole, break it off at the score mark. No hunting for old pins and it 
> makes the job of removal or reassembly a cinch! 

Happy Spitting................John
